What is another word for ginkgoaceae?
Pronunciation: [d͡ʒˈɪŋkɡə͡ʊsˌiː] (IPA) 
Ginkgoaceae is a word that refers to a family of plants that includes only one surviving species - Ginkgo biloba. As the name is quite specific, there are not too many synonyms that can be used instead of it. However, some people refer to Ginkgoaceae as maidenhair trees because of the shape of the leaves that resemble the fronds of the maidenhair fern. Other synonyms that could be used instead of Ginkgoaceae might include simply Ginkgo or even the more descriptive term of "living fossil" due to the fact that the Ginkgo biloba species has been around for over 200 million years.
