The scientific family name for a small group of carnivorous plants including the Venus flytrap.
From 'Dionaea' (the genus) + '-aceae' (the taxonomic suffix for plant families), established in botanical taxonomy in the 19th century.
The family Dionaeaceae contains only three known species, all native to the American Southeast, and they're so rare that people have illegally collected them from the wild—the Venus flytrap is one of the world's rarest plants in its natural habitat!
