Tulipeae

Herbaceous non-climbing bulbous plants. Bulbs consisting of a single scale. Anthers pseudo-basifixed. fruit consists of a loculicidal capsule, seeds not winged. Tetrasporic embryo-sac formation with 7–8 nuclei. Nucella having a short base. Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae (VAM) non-Clintonia type. Chromosomes large - 2–11 μm (1–6 μm in Gagea). Genome size (3)4–25(70) pg, x = (9)12. Polyploidy common.{{sfn|Peruzzi|2016}}

Tulipeae remained a core group of the Liliaceae, containing the type genus, Lilium for most of its taxonomic history. For instance, Bentham and Hooker (1883),{{sfn|Bentham|Hooker|1862–1883}} placed Lilium together with Tulipa and five other genera in Liliaceae tribe Tulipeae.

In the modern era, Takhtadzhi︠an described the tribe as having four genera:{{sfn|Takhtadzhi︠a︡n|2009}}

• Tulipa
• Amana (considered by some to be included in Tulipa)
• Holongia{{efn|Holongia: A genus only recognised by Takhtadzhi︠an}}
• Erythronium

Later only Tulipa and Erythronium were included, and Gagea was added. Tulipeae has been variously constructed, chiefly as either a tribe of the subfamily Lilioideae,{{sfn|Brands|2017}} or a subfamily of Liliaceae itself (Tulipoideae).{{sfn|Watson|1879}} However it has been proposed that Gagea should be in its own tribe, the Lloydieae.{{sfn|Kim et al.|2013a}}

The evolutionary and phylogenetic relationships of Tulipeae within Liliaceae are shown in the following Cladogram.

Here, Tulipeae is shown as a clade within the broader construction of Lileae (sensu lato), or as a separate biogeographical tribe if the narrow sense of Lileae (sensu stricto) is adopted, with Lileae and Tulipeae as sister groups. The continuing use of Tulipeae as a separate tribe is supported by several authors.{{sfn|Kim et al.|2013a}}{{sfn|Peruzzi|2016}}

Genera (species){{sfn|Peruzzi|2016}}

• Amana Honda (5)
• Erythronium L. (15)
• Gagea Salisb. (=Lloydia Salisb.) (ca. 300)
• Tulipa L. (ca. 150)

Gagea is sister to the other three genera.

• Gageeae Rouy, Fl. France 12: 380. 1910.
• Lloydieae Buxb., Bot. Arch. 38: 389. 1937.
• Tulipoideae Kostel, Allg. Med.-Pharm. Fl. 1: 168. 1831.{{sfn|Peruzzi|2016}}
