}}Rhodophiala is a genus of herbaceous, perennial and bulbous plants in the Amaryllis family (Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae[1]). It consists of about 30 South American species distributed in southern Brazil, Argentina, and, specially, in Chile. DescriptionRhodophiala 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.[2] Taxonomy At one stage, Rhodophiala was considered a subgenus of the closely related Hippeastrum.[3] Although as of February 2016 not yet accepted by the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families a number of species of Rhodophiala have been rehabilitated as Rhodolirium.{{sfn|Munoz et al|2011}}{{sfn|Garcia et al|2014}} Species The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families accepts 27 species {{as of|2013|June|lc=yes}}:[4] - Rhodophiala advena (Ker Gawl.)
