Description



Streptopoideae are herbaceous plants[1] with branched, leafy stems, and red to white berry fruits[2] bearing striate seeds.[3]
Taxonomy
It was validly published by James Lauritz Reveal in 2012 based on previous work by David John Mabberley.[4]
Genera
It has three genera:[5]
- Prosartes D.Don
- Scoliopus Torr.
- Streptopus Michx.
Phylogeny
It is the most basal subfamily within the family Liliaceae, and therefore it is the sister group to the subfamilies Calochortoideae and Lilioideae.[6]
