The name mistletoe originally referred to the species " Viscum album " ( European mistletoe, of the family Santalaceae in the order Santalales ); it was the only species native to Great Britain and much of Europe.

Carl Ludwig Blume named the botanical genus " Korthalsia " ( family Arecaceae ) after Korthals, and Philippe �douard L�on Van Tieghem introduced the genus name " Korthalsella " ( family Santalaceae ) in his honor.

The "'Santalaceae "', sandalwoods, are a widely distributed family of flowering plants ( including small trees, shrubs, epiphytic climbers ) which, like other members of Santalales, are partially parasitic on other plants.

"' Schoepfiaceae "'is a family of flowering plants recognized in the APG III system of 2009 . The family has previously only been recognized by few taxonomists; the plants in question usually being assigned to family Olacaceae and Santalaceae.

It has traditionally been included within the Santalaceae, however genetic analyses have led some authors to include it within the Opiliaceae, a move that has been disputed by later authors due to a lack of any shared characteristics with the other members of the Opiliaceae.

"O . aubrevillei " was originally named " Oktoknema okoubaka " and placed in the Octoknemaceae or Olacaceae; however careful morphological studies of the fruits have led to it being classified as " Okoubaka " and placed in the Santalaceae.

Studies based on DNA sequences also indicate the family Schoepfiaceae should be resurrected ( as has been done in the updated APG III-publication ) to accommodate " Schoepfia " ( formerly in Olacaceae ), " Arjona " and " Quinchamalium " ( both previously in Santalaceae ).

Originally, the Loranthaceae contained all mistletoe species, but the typical Christmas mistletoes of Europe and North America, whose genera " Viscum " and " Phoradendron ", belong to the family Santalaceae ( previously, these two genera and their closest relatives were in a separate family, Viscaceae, which has been merged into Santalaceae ).

Species more or less completely parasitic include the leafless quintral, " Tristerix aphyllus ", which lives deep inside the sugar-transporting tissue of a spiny cactus, appearing only to show its tubular red flowers, and the genus " Arceuthobium " ( dwarf mistletoe; Santalaceae ) which has reduced photosynthesis; as an adult, it manufactures only a small proportion of the sugars it needs from its own photosynthesis, but as a seedling actively photosynthesizes until a connection to the host is established.
