• BennettitalesCompared with: Bennettitalean organs can look flower-like but did not enclose seeds in ovaries.

• EquisetumCompared with: Horsetails have neither flowers nor fruits, relying instead on spores.

• GnetidaeCompared with: Gnetophytes share some traits with flowering plants but lack flowers and enclosed ovules.
