A family of flowering plants related to orchids, containing primitive or ancestral orchid species.
Formed from 'Archidium' (a genus of primitive orchids) with the Latin family suffix '-aceae.' This botanical classification groups related orchid species together.
Modern orchids are incredibly diverse and complex, but studying the archidiaceae family reveals the simple orchid ancestors from which all 25,000+ orchid species eventually evolved.
