'''Putranjivaceae''' is a [[rosid]] [[family]] that is composed of 216 [[species]] of evergreen [[tropical]] trees distributed into (presently) four [[genus|genera]].<ref name="Christenhusz-Byng2016">{{cite journal |author1=Christenhusz, M.

The flowers are fasciculate and usually small, and the fruits of these species are a single-seeded [[drupe]] crown by the persistent [[carpel|stigma]]s. This family has its origin in [[Africa]] and [[Malesia]]. It is the only family outside [[Brassicales]] that produces [[mustard oils]].
 
 
 
==Taxonomy==
 
This family was formerly a [[tribe (biology)|tribe]] ('''Drypeteae''') of the [[subfamily]] [[Phyllanthoideae]] in the [[Euphorbiaceae]]. When the Phyllanthoideae was separated to form the new family [[Phyllanthaceae]], it was decided that Drypeteae also stand alone.
