'''''Sternbergia''''' is a genus in [[Amaryllidaceae]] of around 8 species that show a broad distribution throughout Mediterranean Europe and Asia, and was first described by [[Charles de l'Écluse|Clusius]] in 1601 as ''[[Narcissus]]'', before being redescribed by [[Carl Linnaeus]] as ''[[Amaryllis]]'' in 1753. The plant referred to by both these descriptions is now recognised as being ''[[Sternbergia lutea]]'', which was described by [[Franz de Paula Adam von Waldstein|Franz von Waldstein]] and [[Pál Kitaibel]] in 1803, although their first validation of the name ''Sternbergia'' was applied to ''[[Sternbergia colchiciflora|S. colchiciflora]]''.
