List of Liliaceae genera

The List of Liliaceae genera has been much reduced by modern molecular phylogenetic based taxonomy. The current taxonomy of Liliaceae treats the family Liliaceae as having three subfamilies, with the Liliodeae being further subdivided into two tribes, the Medeoleae and Lilieae. The family Liliaceae consists of fifteen genera and approximately 600 species in all.

Calochortoideae Dumort. (synonyms: Calochortaceae Dumort., Compsoaceae Horan., nom. illeg., Tricyrtidaceae Takht., nom. cons.)Calochortus Pursh - mariposa, globe lilies
Calochortus catalinae
Tricyrtis Wall. – toad lily

The situation with respect to Calochortoideae remains uncertain. Originally Calochortus and Tricyrtis were considered to be sister clades and placed together in subfamily Calochortoideae. Further study has not confirmed this and it has been proposed that Tricyrtis be placed in a separate subfamily.[3]
gollark: Can printers ever really be useful though?
gollark: The closest thing would be "dado".
gollark: Routing failure of some kind, which they can't fix remotely because they cannot communicate with the routers, and which also stopped them getting into the buildings.
gollark: Angle-grind the end off or something.
gollark: Yes it does, just stick a 2TB M.2 disk into a USB enclosure.
