--><p>M. L. Fernald (1921) recognized three species of <i>Lophiola</i>: <i>L. aurea</i> in the southeastern United States, <i>L. americana</i> in New Jersey and Delaware, and <i>L. septentrionalis</i> in Nova Scotia. Pending more detailed studies, only one species is recognized here. While the genus is retained in the Haemodoraceae in this treatment, recent research indicates that <i>Lophiola</i> is quite different from other Haemodoraceae and may be best placed in Liliaceae subfam. Melanthioideae (J. D. Ambrose 1985), Tecophilaeaceae (R. M. T. Dahlgren et al. 1985), or Nartheciaceae (W. B. Zomlefer 1997).</p>
