Tecophilaeaceae
Tecophilaeaceae is a family of flowering plants, placed in the order Asparagales of the monocots. It consists of nine genera with a total of 27 species. The family has only recently been recognized by taxonomists. The APG IV system of 2016 (unchanged from the 1998, 2003, and 2009 versions) does recognize this family. The family then includes over half a dozen genera, with only a few dozen species, occurring in Africa, in western South America and western North America. This circumscription includes the genus ''Cyanastrum'', which sometimes has been treated as a separate family Cyanastraceae. Genera The following genera are recognised: *''Conanthera'' *''Cyanastrum'' *''Cyanella'' *''Eremiolirion'' *''Kabuyea'' *''Odontostomum'' *''Tecophilaea'' *''Walleria'' *''Zephyra ''Zephyra'' is a genus of cormous plants in the Tecophilaeaceae, first described as a genus in 1832.

Asparagales
Asparagales (asparagoid lilies) is an order of plants in modern classification systems such as the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) and the Angiosperm Phylogeny Web. The order takes its name from the type family Asparagaceae and is placed in the monocots amongst the lilioid monocots. The order has only recently been recognized in classification systems. It was first put forward by Huber in 1977 and later taken up in the Dahlgren system of 1985 and then the APG in 1998, 2003 and 2009. Before this, many of its families were assigned to the old order Liliales, a very large order containing almost all monocots with colorful tepals and lacking starch in their endosperm. DNA sequence analysis indicated that many of the taxa previously included in Liliales should actually be redistributed over three orders, Liliales, Asparagales, and Dioscoreales. The boundaries of the Asparagales and of its families have undergone a series of changes in recent years; future research may lead to furth ...

Friedrich Leybold
Friedrich Leybold (29 September 1827, Grossköllenbach (Bavaria) – 31 December 1879, Santiago de Chile) was a German-Chilean pharmacist and naturalist. In 1855 he relocated to Chile as a pharmaceutical industrialist, eventually settling in Santiago de Chile. While in South America, he traveled the Argentine Pampas, publishing "''Escursion a las pampas arjentinas : hojas de mi diario, febrero de 1871''" as a result. While collecting specimens in the Juan Fernández Archipelago, he discovered the Alejandro Selkirk firecrown (''Sephanoides fernandensis leyboldi''), a subspecies of hummingbird endemic to Alejandro Selkirk Island.JSTOR Global Plants Leybold, Friedrich (1827-1879) It is now classified as extinct; the last sighting of the subspecies was in 1908.
