This article is about the plant genus. For the former indigenous tribe in Florida, see
Mayaca people .
Mayaca is a genus of flowering plants , often placed in its own family , the Mayacaceae (or Mayaceae in earlier systems).[4 ] [5 ] In the APG II system of 2003, it is assigned to the order Poales in the clade commelinids . The Cronquist system , of 1981, also recognised such a family and placed it in the order Commelinales in the subclass Commelinidae .
The group is widely distributed in Latin America from Mexico to Argentina , as well as in the West Indies , the southeastern United States , and central Africa .[3 ] [6 ] [7 ] [8 ]
