'''Sladeniaceae''' is a [[Family (biology)|family]] of [[flowering plant]]s containing [[tree]] species found in subtropical to tropical environments in [[East Africa]] (''[[Ficalhoa]]''), [[Burma]], [[Yunnan]], and [[Thailand]] (''[[Sladenia (plant)|Sladenia]]''). The family consists of trees with alternate, simple leaves without stipules, and flowers arranged in [[Inflorescence|cymose inflorescences]].
 
 
 
The circumscription of the family is variable, with some systems describing the family as consisting solely of the genus ''Sladenia'', which has been variously considered a member of the [[Theaceae]], the [[Actinidiaceae]], the [[Dilleniaceae]], or the [[Ternstroemiaceae]].  Other systems include the genus ''[[Ficalhoa]]'' and possibly the genus ''[[Pentaphylax]]'' in a family with ''Sladenia''.  [[Morphology (biology)|Morphological]] studies of the ''Sladenia'' embryo suggest it has unique characteristics that merit placing the genus in its own family.<ref>{{cite journal|
