maples
I see somebody ran a more robust-looking analysis on Sapindaceae.
This rather confirms what was said here previously (and thus contradicts the literature): - Xanthoceras is sister to the rest, - Aceraceae and Hippocastanaceae together are sister to the rest. So almost any position whatsoever can be defended, but: - if Aceraceae and Hippocastanaceae are families then so is Xanthoceras (likely by itself, but given the present level of analysis, it may have unknown allies) - although the whole can be dumped into one big family Sapindaceae, which will be a holophyletic unit, it is hardly a necessity.
