Scilla section Chionodoxa, known as glory-of-the-snow, is a small group of bulbous perennial flowering plants in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Scilloideae. Formerly treated as the separate genus Chionodoxa , they are now included in Scilla as a section.
Scilla luciliae is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae. [2] It is referred to by the common names Bossier's glory-of-the-snow [3] or Lucile's glory-of-the-snow, and is a bulbous perennial from western Turkey that flowers in early spring.
It was therefore proposed that Chionodoxa be considered an obsolete genus and be submerged within Scilla. [27] Subsequently, it was proposed that the species of Scilla be split into two sections, Chionodoxa that would include those taxa previously considered to belong in the genus Chionodoxa, and Scilla which would contain the remainder.

Scilla sardensis, the lesser glory-of-the-snow, [2] is a bulbous perennial from west Turkey flowering in early spring. After flowering, it goes into dormancy until the next spring. It belongs to a group of Scilla species that were formerly put in a separate genus, Chionodoxa , and may now be treated as Scilla sect. Chionodoxa .
Phylogenetic studies showed that Chionodoxa was nested within Scilla. Former Chionodoxa species may now be treated as Scilla sect. Chionodoxa. [8] Plants occurring in Crete have at one time or another been put into one of three species (in either Scilla or Chionodoxa): S. albescens Speta, S. cretica (Boiss. & Heldr.) Speta and S. nana (Schult ...
