The sole species is Lardizabala biternata Ruiz & Pav, known as Coguil, Cogüilera, Coiye, Coille, Voqui cógüil, or Voqui coille, in Chile, and known as Lardizabala or Zabala fruit in English. It is grown for its edible fruits (called coguil or cógüil in Mapuche language) and ornamental flowers.
The genus is dedicated to Miguel de Lardizábal y Uribe, a Spanish statesman from the 18th century.
