What's the difference between catchfly and silene?
Catchfly
Definition:
(n.) A plant with the joints of the stem, and sometimes other parts, covered with a viscid secretion to which small insects adhere. The species of Silene are examples of the catchfly.
Example Sentences:
Silene
Definition:
(n.) A genus of caryophyllaceous plants, usually covered with a viscid secretion by which insects are caught; catchfly.
