Paramongaia is a genus of South American plants in the family Amaryllidaceae, the most important species being Paramongaia weberbaueri found only in the Andes of Peru and Bolivia.[3] Common names are "giant Peruvian daffodil",[4] and Cojomaria. Its flower superficially resembles a 'King Alfred' daffodil, but the flower is much larger, up to 18.5 cm (7.3 in) long by 18.5 cm (7.3 in) wide with a corona 8.5 cm (3.3 in) by 8.5 cm (3.3 in) long by 8 cm (3.1 in) wide.[5]

Taxonomy

It was published by Octavio Velarde in 1949[6][1] with Paramongaia weberbaueri Velarde as the type species.[7][1] After the genus was expanded, Paramongaia Velarde was conserved against the genus Callithauma Herb. published by William Herbert in 1837 with Callithauma viridiflorum (Ruiz & Pav.) Herb. as the type species.[7]
