The following dictionary lists scientific names of plant families that belong to the division of flowering plants. These terms are followed by corresponding English and German names. In certain cases a literal translation is provided to illustrate cases of equal or similar descriptive meanings across languages; for example waterleaf family and Wasserblattgewächse for Hydrophyllacea. Some family entries include a note indicating the change of family status, which may have been shifted to subfamily status or another ranking in the classification hierarchy.

German family names typically end in -gewächse or -blütler. The former ending is the plural form of the noun Gewächs, meaning plant or, literally, something grown. The ending -blütler is related to the word Blüte, meaning flower head.

The dictionary contains entries for frequently and less frequently encountered plant families. Selected names and added annotations are based on various resources given in the Reference section.
