The naming of families is codified by various international codes. In fungal, algal, and botanical nomenclature, the family names of plants, fungi, and algae end with the suffix "-aceae", with the exception of a small number of historic but widely used names including Compositae and Gramineae. In zoological nomenclature, the family names of animals end with the suffix "-idae"
