Some of the text is my translation from Lotte Burkhardt's copyleft book, in pdf form at https://www.bgbm.org/en/bgbm-press/index-eponymic-plant-names-extended-edition.
~~I copied the second cladogram with permission from User:Jts1882/phylogeny/monocots. - Dank (push to talk) 02:26, 14 November 2022 (UTC)~~ See the first paragraph at WP:Featured list candidates/List of commelinid family names with etymologies/archive1. - Dank (push to talk) 20:45, 5 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Btw, I do check all the databases listed under the "General information" tab for each family on POWO, not just the one cited. The uncited databases are useful for checking my assumptions, but I don't take information from them directly. - Dank (push to talk) 04:54, 21 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
My next edit will remove information on the veins and placement of leaves; that might be too technical for the readership that is likely to be interested in this list. (Done in this edit.) - Dank (push to talk) 15:18, 2 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Dasypogon and Ecdeiocolea are sourced to USDA only for purposes of identifying each family's type genus. - Dank (push to talk) 00:10, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
