型態特徵
Evergreen or deciduous trees or shrubs. Leaves usually alternate, rarely opposite or whorled, simple, entire, wavy, serrate, echinate or cleft, petiolate; stipules caducous, pinnately veined, glabrous or tomentose beneath. Plants are monoecious, flowers small, apetalous. Staminate flowers in spikes (catkins) or heads, with 4–7-lobed perianth; stamens 3–12 or more, anthers glabrous or hairy, 2-celled, longitudinally dehiscent; reduced ovary present or not. Pistillate flowers solitary or 3–4-clustered, usually in short spikes, sometimes at the base of staminate catkins, with 4–8-lobed perianth adnate to the ovary; ovary 3–7-celled, placentation axile, ovules 2 in each cell, but only 1 in the ripened ovary; styles 3–10, rarely 1–2, usually as many as cells; stigmas pointed or enlarged with flat or tuberculate portion. Nuts ovoid, oblong, depressed-globose or 3-angled, enclosed partly or wholly in a cupule (involucre), glabrous or hairy or winged; cupules regularly or irregularly dehiscent or not, covered with imbricate scales, scales free or united into 6–11 concentric rings, smooth, muricate, tomentose or long-spined, spines simple or branched, hard or soft, often tuberculate-scaled; seed usually solitary by abortion, without endosperm, cotyledons 2, fleshy.

型態特徵
Evergreen trees, rarely shrubs, buds with many imbricate scales. Leaves alternate, pinnately veined, echinate or serrate, glabrous or hairy beneath, mostly short-petioled. Flowers monoecious; staminate flowers in slender pendulous catkins, sessile or nearly so; perianth 4–7-lobed, hairy to glabrous outside, nearly glabrous inside; stamens 3–7, filaments short, anthers large, longitudinally dehiscent; reduced ovary usually wanting. Pistillate flowers solitary or paired, clustered in spikes; perianth 4–6-lobed, urceolate; ovary 1-celled, later becoming 3-celled, ovules 2 in each cell; styles 2–4, short, cylindrical or flat; stigmas enlarged, flat, capitate, rarely pointed. Nuts subglobose to ellipsoid, with thin pericarp, partially enclosed in a cupule, scales in 5–11 concentric rings; germination of seeds hypogeal.
