Common names include toothache plant, Szechuan buttons, [2] paracress, jambu, [3] buzz buttons, [4] tingflowers and electric daisy. [5] Its native distribution is unclear, but it is likely derived from a Brazilian Acmella species. [6] A small, erect plant, it grows quickly and bears gold and red inflorescences. It is frost-sensitive but ...
Acmella alba is a species of plant belonging to the family Asteraceae. Common names include brede mafane, spilanthes, tingflower, toothache plant, electric daisy, and buzz buttons. The flowers and leaves contain spilanthol, a local anesthetic. [1] [2]

In the past, it often grew as a weed in cornfields (in the broad sense of "corn", referring to grains , such as wheat, barley, rye, or oats), hence its name.
The effects of climate change on plant biodiversity can be predicted by using various models, for example bioclimatic models. [5] [6] Habitats may change due to climate change. This can cause non-native plants and pests to impact native vegetation diversity. [7] Therefore, the native vegetation may become more vulnerable to damage. [8]
