The first classification was published in Russian in 1954,and came to the attention of the rest of the world after publication of an English translation in 1958 as Origin of Angiospermous Plants. Further versions appeared in 1959 (Die Evolution der Angiospermen) and 1966 (Sistema i filogeniia tsvetkovykh rastenii).[1] The latter popularised Takhtajan's system when it appeared in English in 1969 (Flowering plants: Origin and dispersal). A further revision appeared in 1980.[2][3]

This is a selected list of the more influential systems. There are many other systems, for instance a review of earlier systems, published by
Lindley in his 1853 edition, and
Dahlgren (1982). Examples include the works of
Scopoli,
Ventenat,
Batsch and
Grisebach.
