Superorder Bryanae in Subclass Bryidae

     In botanical taxonomy, a Superorder is a high-level taxonomic rank that is used to group related orders together within a Class. The Superorder rank is placed above the Order rank and below the Class rank in the hierarchy of taxonomic ranks.
     Superorders are often used in modern plant taxonomic systems, such as the APG system (Angiosperm Phylogeny Group), to provide a finer level of classification between the Class and Order ranks.
     Superorders are further divided into smaller taxonomic ranks, such as Orders, Families, Genera, and Species, based on their shared characteristics and evolutionary relationships. Botanists use these classifications to study and better understand the relationships between different groups of plants.
