Galanthus 1805–1815) he divided Liliaceae into a series of "Ordres", and placed Galanthus into the Narcissi "Ordre". This relationship of Galanthus to either liliaceous or amaryllidaceaous taxa (see Taxonomy of Liliaceae) was to last for another two centuries till the two were formally divided at the end of the twentieth century. Lindley (1830) followed this general pattern, placing "Galanthus" and related genera such as "Amaryllis" and "Narcissus" in his Amaryllideae (which he called The Narcissus Tribe in English). By 1853, the number of known plants was increasing considerably and he revised his schema in his last work, placing "Galanthus" together the
Luzula nivalis Luzula nivalis Luzula nivalis, commonly known as arctic wood-rush or less commonly as snowy wood-rush (both names are used with or without hyphenation), is a species of perennial rushes endemic to Canada, Greenland, Alaska, and Northern Europe in Scandinavia.
