Is Sternbergia lutea a crocus, daffodil, or neither?

What are they? Sternbergias?


I have seen them called both "winter daffodils" and "autumn crocus"

Is Sternbergia lutea a crocus, daffodil, or neither?
They are their own genus but are related to daffodils. The bulb looks like a daffodil hence the autumn daffodil name, and the flower like the crocus hence the autumn crocus name but they are neither.
Reply:Crocus, but it gets daffodil as a nickname. http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/hort/consu...
