Default Indiginous South American Onions?

Cereus-validus wrote in message

A little clarification. "Onion-type" plants is not the same thing as the
genus Allium. The family Alliaceae is well represented in South America by
several genera, a number of which are endemic.


Thanks. What are these species called and are they edible? Which was all I
asked
in my first post.
Thanks again,
Mike
