亚麻科植物绝大部分为草本，稀有木本植物，但在热带地区也有一些长成树木的品种。本科植物叶为单叶互生，有的品种有托叶；花两性，5裂，在热带地区也有4裂的。本科植物共有8属约250种，全球分布，其中亚麻属最大，有约180-200种，中国共有4属12种。克朗奎斯特分类法将亚麻科和古柯科、粘木科等单独分为亚麻目，1998年的APG 分类法根据基因亲缘关系将亚麻科列入新设立的金虎尾目，2003年经过修订的APG II 分类法将亚麻藤科合并到本科中，分为“亚麻族”和“亚麻藤族”两类。 最重要的品种亚麻有纤维用和油用的栽培品种，其中纤维用的在中国黑龙江等地有种植，“亚麻纤维”被称为“纤维皇后”。油用的在山西、内蒙等地是重要的油料作物，其油被俗称为“胡麻油”，虽然和胡麻科并没有较近的亲缘关系。 属 异腺草属 Anisadenia Cliococca Hesperolinon 亚麻属 Linum Radiola 石海椒属 Reinwardtia Sclerolinon 青篱柴属 Tirpitzia

Linaceae is a family of flowering plants. The family is cosmopolitan, and includes about 250 species in 14 genera, classified into two subfamilies: the Linoideae and Hugonioideae.
== Description == The leaves of the Linaceae are always simple; arrangement varies from alternate (most species) to opposite (in Sclerolinon and some Linum) or whorled (in some Hesperolinon and Linum species). The hermaphroditic, actinomorphic flowers are pentameric or, very rarely, tetrameric (e.g., Radiola linoides, Linum keniense).
