Meerow, A. W., Van Scheepen, J. & Dutilh, J. H. A.: Transfers from Amaryllis to Hippeastrum (Amaryllidaceae). - Taxon 46: 15-19. 1997. - ISSN 0040-0262.
42 species transfers are made from Amaryllis to Hippeastrum in accord with the decision, at the Fourteenth International Botanical Congress in 1987, on the application of the former name to a South African genus. This completes the validation of combinations required in Hippeastrum, and will thus aid nomenclatural clarity and enable botanists and horticulturists to refer to these species by their correct names.
