Aralioideae is a subfamily of flowering plants contains around 50 recognized genera. These include the genus Panax, to which ginseng belongs. Other notable species are the Angelica-tree (devil's walking-stick, Aralia spinosa), the devil's club (Oplopanax horridus), or common ivy (Hedera helix).
Molecular evidence suggests that the Aralioideae diverged from their sister lineage, the relatively species-poor Hydrocotyloideae, during the Middle Eocene.
