Tuberaria
''Tuberaria'' is a genus of about 12 species of annual or perennial plants in the rockrose family Cistaceae, native to western and southern Europe. They occur on dry, stony sites, often close to the sea. The leaves are in a rosette at the base of the plant, and then in opposite pairs up the stem; they are simple oval, 2–5 cm long and 1–2 cm broad. The flowers are 2–5 cm diameter, with five petals, yellow with a red spot at the base of each petal, the red spot acting as a 'target' for pollinating insects. ''Tuberaria'' species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including the ''Coleophora ''Coleophora'' is a very large genus of moths of the family Coleophoridae.

Tuberaria Guttata
''Tuberaria guttata'', the spotted rock-rose or annual rock-rose, is an annual plant of the Mediterranean region which also occurs very locally in Wales and Ireland. The flowers are very variable with the characteristic spot at the base of the petal very variable in size and intensity of colour. Description ''Tuberaria guttata'' is an annual plant that grows to tall. It has a rosette of basal leaves, each up to long and wide, but this rosette has normally withered by the time the plant is in flower. The stems bear 2–5 opposite pairs of leaves, and a few smaller leaves higher up, arranged alternately. The inflorescence comprises around 12 flowers, in diameter. Each flower has five uneven sepals and five yellow petals usually with a dark red spot near the base. The flowers are cleistogamous, producing little pollen and no nectar, and attracting few insect visitors, and the petals fall off after only a few hours. The centre of the flower houses around 20 stamens and a sin ...

Taxonomy The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his 1753 work ', as "''Cistus tuberaria''". It was later transferred to the genus ''Helianthemum'', and when Michel Félix Dunal erected ''Helianthemum'' sect. ''Tuberaria'' in 1824, he designated "''Helianthemum tuberaria''" as its type species. In 1827, Robert Sweet published a description of "''Helianthemum lignosum''", but this name was invalid as a junior synonym of ''H. tuberaria''. In 1 ...
