"Gagea" is a large genus of spring flowers in the Liliaceae found in Europe and western Asia. It is named after the English naturalist Sir Thomas Gage. They were originally described as species of "Ornithogalum", which, together with the usual yellow colour of the flowers, explains the English name "Yellow Star-of-Bethlehem" for the most common species in Europe, "Gagea lutea", which grows in damp deciduous woodland.
