Anthemis Cotula
''Anthemis cotula'', also known as stinking chamomile, or mayweed, is a flowering annual plant with a noticeable and strong odor. The odor is often considered unpleasant, and it is from this that it gains the common epithet "stinking". In pre-colonial times, its distribution was limited to the Old Continent and Africa; though it was established in most of Europe, it was not present in Finland, Ireland, or the northernmost reaches of Scotland, in spite of the fact that these countries feature climatic regions favorable to this plant and are in proximity to countries where the species is native, such as Russia, Estonia, Lithuania and England. It has successfully migrated to the American continents where it can be found growing in meadows, alongside roads, and in fields. The name "cotula" is the Latin form of ''kotylē'', the Greek word for "small cup", describing the shape of the flowers; it was assigned by Carl Linnaeus in his work ''Species Plantarum'' in 1753. ''Anthemis cot ...

Common Name
In biology, a common name of a taxon or organism (also known as a vernacular name, English name, colloquial name, country name, popular name, or farmer's name) is a name that is based on the normal language of everyday life; and is often contrasted with the scientific name for the same organism, which is often based in Latin. A common name is sometimes frequently used, but that is not always the case. In chemistry, IUPAC defines a common name as one that, although it unambiguously defines a chemical, does not follow the current systematic naming convention, such as acetone, systematically 2-propanone, while a vernacular name describes one used in a lab, trade or industry that does not unambiguously describe a single chemical, such as copper sulfate, which may refer to either copper(I) sulfate or copper(II) sulfate. Sometimes common names are created by authorities on one particular subject, in an attempt to make it possible for members of the general public (including s ...

Anthemideae is a tribe (biology), tribe of flowering plants in the subfamily Asteroideae, which is part of the family Asteraceae. They are cosmopolitan distribution, distributed worldwide, with concentrations in central Asia, the Mediterranean Basin, and southern Africa.Oberprieler, C., et al. (2007) A new subtribal classification of the tribe Anthemideae (Compositae). ''Willdenowia'' 37(1): 89–114. Most species of plant known as chamomile belong to genera of this tribe. As of 2006 there were about 1800 species classified in 111 genus, genera. In 2007 the tribe was divided into 14 subtribes, including Glebionidinae, the source of hybrid garden marguerites. Genera Anthemideae genera recognized by the Global Compositae Database as March 2022: *''× Anthematricaria'' *''× Anthemimatricaria'' *''Achillea'' (synonym ''Leucocyclus'' ) *''Adenanthellum'' *''Adenoglossa'' *''Ajania'' (synonym ''Phaeostigma'' ) *''Ajaniopsis'' *''Allardia'' *''Anacyclus'' *''Anthemis'' *'' ...
