Asarina is a flowering plant genus of only one species, Asarina procumbens,[2] native to southern Europe. Originally placed in the Scrophulariaceae (figwort family), the genus has more recently been moved to the Plantaginaceae (plantain family).[3] Species from North America formerly placed in the genus Asarina are now placed in Holmgrenanthe, Lophospermum, Mabrya and Maurandya,[4] as well as Neogaerrhinum. Asarina is now regarded as exclusively an Old World genus.[5][6]
