Plantago est genus circa ducentarum parvarum inconspicuarumque specierum plantarum florentium familiae Plantaginacearum. Plurimae sunt plantae herbaceae, sed aliquae sunt suffrutices qui ad 60 cm alti crescunt. Folia sunt sessilia, sed partem angustam prope caulem habent quae est pseudo-petiolus. Eis sunt tres vel quinque venae parallelae quae in latiore folii parte decedunt. Folia sunt lata vel angusta, secundum speciem. Inflorescentiae in pedunculis feruntur, typice 5–40 cm altis, et sunt coni breves vel spicae longae, multis perparvis floribus a vento pollinatis praeditae.

Larvae nonnullarum specierum lepidopterorum plantaginibus vescuntur; vide Indicem lepidopterorum quae plantaginibus vescuntur.
