Alamillo mielero (Cephalantus occidentalis)


Explanation:
Es la traducción que más se ve. También la usa la Comisión para la Cooperación Ambiental de América del Norte (cec.org).

De todos modos, es difícil encontrar nombres comunes para esta planta ya que es nativa de América del Norte:

"Distribution: Common buttonbush is native to North America. It occurs from Nova Scotia to Ontario, south through Florida, and west to the eastern Great Plains with scattered populations in New Mexico, Arizona, California, and northern Mexico. For current distribution, please consult the Plant Profile page for this species on the PLANTS Web site (http://plants.usda.gov)."

De todos modos, olvidé decir que podrías poner los dos nombres (el común y el científico) o, en función del tipo de texto que traduzcas, sólo el científico.
