Common gum cistus
The common gum cistus, <em>Cistus ladanifer</em>, is a flowering shrub belonging to the family Cistaceae. It is typically found across a broad range of countries including Cyprus, Italy, Portugal, South Africa, and the United States, reflecting both its native distribution and introduced occurrences.

Its large white flowers with a distinctive dark spot at the base of each petal are a recognizable feature. No dietary information has been provided for this species. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
