'''''Datura''''' is a genus of nine species of poisonous vespertine flowering plants belonging to the family [[:Category:Solanaceae (family)|Solanaceae]]. ~~They are commonly known as daturas, but also~~ known as '''devil's trumpets''', ~~not to be confused with '''angel's trumpets''', its closely related genus ''[[Brugmansia (botany)|Brugmansia]]''. They are also sometimes called~~ '''moonflowers''', '''Jimsonweed''', '''devil's weed''', '''hell's bells''', '''thorn-apple''', and many more. Its precise and natural distribution is uncertain, owing to its extensive cultivation and [[naturalization]] throughout the temperate and tropical regions of the globe. Its distribution within the Americas and North Africa, however, is most likely restricted to the United States and Mexico and Southern Canada in North America, and Tunisia in Africa, where the highest species diversity occurs.
