Species

Zoellnerallium is a genus of perennial herbaceous geophytes in the flowering plant family Amaryllidaceae. It is native to Chile and Argentina. It is included in the tribe Gilliesieae, within the subfamily Allioideae.[1][2] It is considered to be part of a group of four genera within Gilliesieae, referred to as Ipheieae nom. nud.. In 2014 it was proposed to create a new tribe Leucocorynae with six genera, including Zoellnerallium, by splitting Gilliesieae into two separate tribes.[3]

Research in 2015 stated that, according to the priority rule in taxonomy, this genus should be called Latace.[4] In line with this, taxonomy authorities such as Plants of the World Online, refer to this genus as Latace.[5]
