This is a list of genera belonging to the family Apiaceae. It contains all the genera listed by Plants of the World Online (PoWO) . A few extra genus names are included that PoWO regards as synonyms. Unless otherwise indicated, the placement of genera into sub-taxa is based on the taxonomy used by the Germplasm Resources Information Network (GRIN). "Not assigned" means either that the genus is unplaced in GRIN or that it is not listed by GRIN. Not assigned to a subfamily In a 2021 molecular phylogenetic study, the ''Platysace'' clade and the genera ''Klotzschia'' and ''Hermas'' fell outside the four subfamilies. It has been suggested that they could be placed in subfamilies of their own. *'' Hermas'' *''Klotzschia'' *'' Platysace'' ;Others *'' Actinanthus'' *'' Adenosciadium'' *'' Agasyllis'' *'' Angoseseli'' *''Apodicarpum'' *'' Asciadium'' *'' Austropeucedanum'' *'' Brachyscias'' *'' Caropodium'' *'' Caropsis'' *''Chaetosciadium'' *'' Dactylaea'' *'' Dethawia' ...
