* Lychnis flos-cuculi L. 은 옛 학명이다(http://wildseed.co.uk/species/view/81). 그러나 인터넷에서는 위키페디아에서조차 옛 학명으로 소개하고 있다. 그러나 Lychnis는 동자꽃속이고, Silene는 끈끈이장구채속으로 엄연히 다르므로 옛 학명은 쓰지 말아야 할 것이다.

Description

Lychnis flos-cuculi forms a rosette of low growing foliage with numerous flower stems 20 to 90 cm tall. The stems rise above the foliage and branch near the top of the stem and end with the pink flowers which are 3-4 cm across. The flowers have five narrow petals deeply divided into four lobes giving the flower an untidy, ragged appearance, hence its common name. The calyx tube is five-toothed with ten stamens. The leaves are paired, with the lower leaves spoon-shaped and stalked. The middle and upper leaves are linear-lanceolate with pointed apexes. All of the leaves are untoothed. The stems have barbed hairs pointing downward and these hairs make the plant rough to the touch. Ragged Robins bloom from May to August, occasionally later, and butterflies and long-tongued bees feed on the flowers nectar. The fruits consist of small (6-10 mm) capsules opening on top by five teeth and containing many small seeds, they are found on the plants from August onwards.

 

It has become naturalized in northeastern United States.
