Rhamphospermum arvense

Flowering Plants

Rhamphospermum arvense, known as charlock and also called field mustard, wild mustard, or charlock mustard, is an annual or winter annual plant in the family Brassicaceae. It grows in fields across North Africa, Asia, and Europe, and in other regions where it has been introduced and naturalized. The small white butterfly, Pieris rapae, and the green-veined white butterfly, Pieris napi, are significant consumers of charlock during their larval stages.
