The monotypic genus Aphyllanthes Linnaeus (1753: 294) (Asparagaceae Juss.) is distributed through the Western Mediterranean region, from Northern Africa (Algeria, Libya, Morocco) to Southeastern and Southwestern Europe (Italy, Balearic Islands, France, Portugal, Sardegna and Spain) (Webb 1980, Rico 2013).
