The species grow to between 0.5-2 m tall, with interrupted pinnate [[leaf|leaves]], and yellow [[flower]]s borne on a single (usually unbranched) [[Inflorescence|spike]].<br /> <br /> ''Agrimonia'' species are used as food plants by the [[larva]]e of some [[Lepidoptera]] species including [[Grizzled Skipper]] (recorded on ''A. eupatoria'') and [[Large Grizzled Skipper]]. Other lepidoptera species found om agrimonia species are: ''[[Coleophora potentillae]]'', ''[[Pyrus malvoides]]'', ''[[Stigmella aeneofasciella]]'', and ''[[Stigmella splendidissimella]]''.<br /> <br /> ;Species<br /> *''[[Agrimonia eupatoria]]'' - Common Agrimony (Europe, Asia, Africa)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia gryposepala]]'' - Tall Hairy Agrimony (North America)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia incisa]]'' - Incised Agrimony (North America)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia coreana]]'' - Korean Agrimony (eastern Asia)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia microcarpa]]'' - Smallfruit Agrimony (North America)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia nipponica]]'' - Japanese Agrimony (eastern Asia)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia parviflora]]'' - Harvestlice Agrimony (North America)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia pilosa]]'' - Hairy Agrimony (eastern Europe, Asia)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia procera]]'' - Fragrant Agrimony (Europe)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia pubescens]]'' - Soft Agrimony (North America)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia repens]]'' - Short Agrimony (southwest Asia)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia rostellata]]'' - Beaked Agrimony (North America)<br /> *''[[Agrimonia striata]]'' - Roadside Agrimony (North America)<br /> <br /> Historically, the plants were thought to have [[herbalism|medicinal]] value.
