Mouse-ear Chickweed
''Cerastium'' is a genus of annual, winter annual, or perennial plants belonging to the family Caryophyllaceae. They are commonly called mouse-ear chickweed. Species are found nearly worldwide but the greatest concentration is in the northern temperate regions. There are about 200 species. A number are common weeds in fields and on disturbed ground. ''Cerastium'' species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including ''Coleophora chalcogrammella'' (which feeds exclusively on ''Cerastium arvense'') and ''Coleophora striatipennella'' (which has been recorded on ''Cerastium fontanum''). Selected species *''Cerastium aleuticum'' – Aleutian chickweed *''Cerastium alpinum'' – alpine chickweed *'' Cerastium arcticum'' – arctic mouse-ear chickweed *''Cerastium arvense'' – field chickweed *''Cerastium axillare'' – Trans-Pecos chickweed *'' Cerastium beeringinanum'' – Bering chickweed *''Cerastium bialynickii'' *'' Cerastium biebersteinii'' â ...
