Amaryllidaceae
Les Amaryllidaceae, en français Amaryllidacées, sont une famille de plantes monocotylédones appartenant à l'ordre des Asparagales. Cette famille compte plus de réparties en une soixantaine de genres, dont plusieurs sont cultivés pour leur intérêt ornemental, tels que les Narcisses (Narcissus) ou les Amaryllis (genres Amaryllis et Hippeastrum). Le nom vient du genre Amaryllis du grec Ἀμαρυλλίς signifiant "brillante", qui est le nom d'un personnage des Bucoliques de Virgile (-) et des Idylles de Théocrite (-).
Amaryllidoideae
Les Amaryllidoideae sont une sous-famille de plantes monocotylédones de la famille des Amaryllidaceae et de l'ordre des Asparagales. La plus récente classification botanique de l'Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, l'APG III, considère les Amaryllidaceae dans une vision élargie, avec trois sous-familles, dont l'une, les Amaryllidoideae correspond à l'ancienne famille des Amaryllidaceae, et les autres sont les Allioideae (ancienne famille des Alliaceae) et les Agapanthoideae (ancienne famille des Agapanthaceae).
Hippeastreae
Hippeastreae is a tribe of plants belonging to the subfamily Amaryllidoideae of the Amaryllis family (Amaryllidaceae). Species in this tribe are distributed in South America. Flowers are large and showy, zygomorphic, with the stamens in varying lengths, inflorescence bracts are often fused basally (along one side). The seeds are flattened, winged or D-shaped. Reported basic chromosome numbers are x= 8-13, 17, and higher. All the species in this tribe present a remarkable aesthetic interest and horticultural value.
Phycella
Phycella is a genus of herbaceous, perennial bulbous flowering plants belonging to the family Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae. The genus consists of five species distributed from central Chile to northwestern Argentina. The genus was described by John Lindley in 1825. After further examining specimens of Amaryllis ignea (see illustration) that he had described the previous year as Amaryllis, with some reservation, Lindley concluded they were a separate genus, naming two species, P. ignea, and P.
Rhodophiala
Rhodophiala was a genus of herbaceous, perennial and bulbous plants in the Amaryllis family (Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae). It consisted of about 30 South American species distributed in southern Brazil, Argentina, and, specially, in Chile. Most of the species are known colloquially as añañuca. It has now been submerged in Zephyranthes. Rhodophiala species resemble small-flowered Hippeastrum or multiflowered Habranthus species. Their narrow parallel-sided leaves are unlike that of Hippeastrum, more closely resembling that of Habranthus or Zephyranthes.
