'''''Phaseolus''''' ('''Bean''', '''Wild Bean''' <ref>{{ITIS|ID=203844}}</ref>) is a [[genus]] in the [[family]] [[Fabaceae]] of about fifty [[plant]] [[species]], all native to [[the Americas]].
At least four of the species have been [[domestication|domesticated]] since [[pre-Columbian]] times for their [[bean]]s. Most prominent among these is the [[common bean]], ''P. vulgaris'', which today is cultivated worldwide in tropical, semitropical and temperate [[climate]]s.
Previous classifications placed in this genus a number of other well known species that have now been removed to genus ''[[Vigna]]'', sometimes necessitating a change of [[species]] name. For example, older literature refers to the [[mung bean]] as ''Phaseolus aureus'', whereas more modern sources classify it as ''Vigna radiata''.
''Phaseolus'' species are used as food plants by the [[larva]]e of some [[Lepidoptera]] species including [[Common Swift (moth)|Common Swift]], [[Garden Dart]], [[Ghost Moth]] ''[[Hypercompe|Hypercompe albicornis]]'', ''[[Hypercompe|Hypercompe icasia]]'', the [[Nutmeg (moth)|Nutmeg]] and various [[caterpillar]] species. Snail Flower was discovered in 1753 and in 1970 moved from the genus family of Phaseolus to the Vigna family.
