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.
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.
"Lophiola aurea" is found in wet locations at elevations less than 100 m. It is a perennial herb up to 90 cm tall, spreading by means of underground rhizomes. It has yellow flowers about 10 mm across, and dry capsules about 4 mm in diameter. Goldencrest is a common name.
