The Malpighiales are a large order of flowering plants, included in the rosid group of dicotyledons.
Under the older Cronquist system, the families now included in the Malpighiales were dispersed throughout a number of different orders, not all of which belonged to the Rosidae. The most notable of these are the Polygalales, Violales, Theales, Linales, and Euphorbiales. The type family, the Malpighiaceae, was placed in Polygalales, an order still recognised by ITIS.da:Barbadoskirsebær-ordenen (Malpighiales) fr:Malpighiales nl:Malpighiales
