Cephalaria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Caprifoliaceae. It includes 102 species native to southern Europe, western and central Asia, and northern and southern Africa.[1]
They are annual or perennial herbaceous plants growing to 0.8–2 m (2 ft 7 in – 6 ft 7 in) tall.
Cephalaria species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Schinia imperialis, which feeds exclusively on C. procera.
