Lophiola is a genus of monocotyledonous flowering plants native to eastern North America. It has variously been placed in the Liliaceae, the Haemodoraceae, the Tecophilaeaceae or the Nartheciaceae. Lophiola aurea Ker Gawl. - southeastern United States from Louisiana to North Carolina; also isolated populations in Delaware, New Jersey, and Nova Scotia

Fernald (1921) recommended recognizing three species, separating the Nova Scotia populations as L. septentrionalis and the New Jersey-Delaware material as L. americana. More recent investigations, however, have suggested that the group be regarded as one species.
