Ceratophyllaceae (as plant) A0F5C Extended term * Natural sources **

Ceratophyllaceae is a family including a cosmopolitan genus of flowering plants, commonly found in ponds, marshes, and quiet streams in tropical and in temperate regions. They are usually called hornworts, although this name is also used for unrelated plants of the division Anthocerotophyta. The part considered is by default the whole living organism.

Extended term (Level of detail)

A fine-grained food term, suitable as a base term in a FoodEx2 code. ↩

Natural sources (Type of Term)

The living organism a food ultimately comes from — a plant, animal or similar. It describes origin (where a food starts in the food chain) rather than being a food you would eat. ↩

Implicit facet descriptors *

Descriptors marked are not part of "[F01] Source" and open in their own default hierarchy.

Facet descriptor

Implicit facet descriptors are characteristics a food already implies, so they are left out of its FoodEx2 code. For example, "smoked salmon" (A02KF) implies the facet descriptor "smoking" (F28.A07JV); because the term itself already conveys it, it is not added to the code. ↩

Narrower terms

These are child terms of the current term, "Ceratophyllaceae (as plant)".
