regions of s South America (Argentina);Pacific Islands (New Zealand);Australia |introduced=true |discussion=<p>Species 150 (10 in the flora).</p><!-- --><p>In this treatment, the species are arranged following the infrageneric classification proposed by D. A. Sutton (1988), with 150 species in seven sections; our ten belong to four of these sections.</p><!-- --><p>North American species of Linaria canadensis (Linnaeus) Dumont de Courset, L. floridana Chapman, and L. texana Scheele included in sect. Leptoplectron Pennell, an invalidly published sectional name, have been included in Nuttallanthus, which differs from Linaria in having the abaxial lip of the corolla greatly exceeding the adaxial lip, a weakly developed palate, and prismatic seeds usually with prominent longitudinal ridges. Phylogenetic studies of Linaria and Nuttallanthus based on nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS sequences (M. Fernández-Mazuecos et al. 2013) concluded that on the basis of morphological traits and phylogenetic results, it would probably be appropriate to circumscribe Nuttallanthus species as a section (sect. Lectoplectron) of Linaria.</p><!-- --><p>Linaria species often are cultivated and some (such as L. bipartita, L. dalmatica, L. triornithophora, and L. vulgaris) become naturalized; how long they may persist is unknown.</p><!-- --><p>Although Linaria supina (Linnaeus) Chazelles de Prizy subsp. supina (lesser butter-and-eggs) has been collected in several states (New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania), all of the collections were made before 1900, and L. supina has yet to become established in the flora area. It would key closest to L. vulgaris, having shorter fertile stems [5–24 cm versus (25–)35–90(–120) cm], smaller corollas (15–25 mm versus 27–33 mm), and globular (versus oblong-globular or ovoid) capsules. The report from Massachusetts by C. H. Knowlton and W. Deane (1923) was based on a cultivated plant (10 July 1863, Boott s.n., GH), and the report from California is an error (http://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/get_IJM.pl?tid=11372).</p> |tables= |references= }}<!-- --><div class="treatment-key"> ==Key== <div class="treatment-key-group"> {| class="wikitable fna-keytable" |-id=key-0-1 |1 |Styles 2-fid; stigmas with 2 discrete areas; seed wings absent; annuals [sect.
