Nothoscordum is a conserved name.^[10] It's synonymous with Pseudoscordum, which was described in 1837 by William Herbert as a reclassification of some Allium species.^[11][12] The term Nothoscordum comes from the fourth volume of Carl Sigismund Kunth's work Enum. Pl., published six years later in 1843.^[13]
