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 Liliaceae family as having three subfamilies, with the Liliodeae being further subdivided into two tribes, the Medeoleae and Lilieae. The Liliaceae family consists of fifteen genera and approximately 600 species in all.

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.
