Thanks, it is fine (if the server could be connected). But what I was
looking for are character sequences (morphological) for higher taxons
like classis, familias, etc.
Every flora project has its own format for descriptions, but much depends on
the context in which it is used. Descriptions of families are common enough.
But nobody makes a description of a class, unless there is dire need.

The Angiosperm Phylogeny Website has synapomorphies for all sorts of
suprafamilial clades - but as often as not some members of the clade
have secondarily lost the trait.
