Khinunilins Crista Galli is a much rarer plant in .Vnicrica than in the Old World, occ'irrin).', s])arin;;ly alonjj the coast and in the mountains of Northern New luii^lami and Eastern Canada, thence extendiu); to the north shore of Lake .Sui^rior and northwestward. This geoK''pl'H' dislriluilion of the Rhinanthus is g(Mid evidence of its being truly native, altl'.oush it may have been intrmluced at soiuo points nlonx the coast. In Great Hritatii and other ICnroiiean , where it is p.'uch more connnon than liere, it often can' s j;rcat loss by its habit of preyinj^ on other plants. It is an erect with simple stem, opposite leaves, and odd y irregular in a onesided spike. It is not unlike the Red Rattle, I'eilicnlaris I'ahi-tris. in general ap]iearance. The name Rhinanthus means " Nnsetlower," ' â¢.â¢cause the upper lip of the corolla of some species once placed in this genus is beake<l. The sjK-cific n;imc, " ; means " Cock'scomb," perhaps in reference to the shape of the curiously inllalcl fmilMig .-alv x.
