Summary
Amaryllideae are a tribe of subfamily Amaryllidoideae (family Amaryllidaceae). They are herbaceous monocot perennial flowering plants with a predominantly Southern African distribution, with the exception of the pantropical genus Crinum. They are generally treated as consisting of four subtribes. In addition to Crinum, other genera include Amaryllis, Boophone and Strumaria.[2]

Subdivision edit
There are four subtribes:
- Amaryllidinae Pax[3]
- Boophoninae D.Müll.-Doblies & U.Müll.-Doblies[4]
- Crininae Baker[5]
- Strumariinae Traub ex D.Müll.-Doblies & U.Müll.-Doblies[6]
These are phylogenetically related as follows:
| Tribe Amaryllideae |
| ||||||||||||||||||
Amaryllidinae: Type. Monogeneric subtribe for genus Amaryllis.
Boophoninae: Monogeneric subtribe for genus Boophone.
Crininae: Three genera including Crinum.
Strumariinae: Six genera including Strumaria and Nerine.
