-The '''Buxaceae''' are a small [[family (biology)|family]] of six genera and about 123 known species<ref name="Christenhusz-Byng2016">{{cite journal |author1=Christenhusz, M. J. M. |author2=Byng, J.

They are [[shrub]]s and small [[tree]]s, with a [[cosmopolitan distribution]]. A seventh genus, sometimes accepted in the past (''Notobuxus''), has been shown by genetic studies to be included within ''[[Buxus]]'' (Balthazar ''et al.'', 2000).
-The family is recognised by most taxonomists, and is commonly known as the [[Buxus|box]] family. However, its placement and circumscription has varied; some taxonomists treated ''[[Styloceras]]'' in its own family Stylocerataceae, ''[[Didymeles]]'' in its own family Didymelaceae, ''[[Haptanthus]]'' in Haptanthaceae (now all included in Buxaceae)<ref name="apgiv" />), and formerly ''[[Jojoba|Simmondsia]]'' was included, which is not related and now usually placed in its own family Simmondsiaceae.
-The [[APG II system]] of 2003 recognises the family, but in a new circumscription in that it includes the genus ''[[Didymeles]]'' (two species of evergreen trees from Madagascar). However, APG II does allow the option of segregating this genus as family [[Didymelaceae]], as an optional [[segregate (taxonomy)|segregate]]. This represents a slight change from the [[APG system]] of 1998, which firmly recognised both families as separate. In both APG and APG II, the family Buxaceae is unplaced as to order and left among the basal lineages of the [[eudicots]]. The [http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/Research/APweb/orders/buxalesweb.htm#Buxales AP website] suggests instating the order [[Buxales]] for this family and the family Didymelaceae. In the [[APG IV system]] of 2016, ''Haptanthus'' and ''Didymeles'' are included in Buxaceae, which is the only family in Buxales.<ref name="apgiv"/>
