Default Malvaceae s.l.

Pentapetaceae presumably equals Dombeyoideae and Sparrmanniaceae
Grewioideae. Durionaceae presumably means that they've chopped the
Kubitzki and Bayer Helicteroideae into 2?


That would seem to leave Bombacaceae paraphyletic.

I wouldn't be surprised. The book is something of a compromise between
the latest phylogenetic information and traditional circumscriptions.

BTW The Malvaceae s.l. treatments apparently have been contributed
