The taxonomy of the genus is made difficult because many species hybridize readily, or are themselves derived from possibly ancient hybridization events. Seeds from hybrids give rise to variable offspring, which may spread through vegetative propagation. The variability has led to what has been described as "paroxysms of species and subspecific taxa"; for example, one taxonomist published 434 new mint taxa for central Europe alone between 1911 and 1916.<sup id="cite_ref-TuckNacz07_11-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-TuckNacz07-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Recent sources recognize between 18<sup id="cite_ref-TuckNacz07_11-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-TuckNacz07-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and 24<sup id="cite_ref-POWO_30016176-2_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-POWO_30016176-2-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> species.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Species">Species</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Mentha&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Species"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>As of December 2020<sup class="plainlinks noexcerpt noprint asof-tag update" style="display:none;"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mentha&action=edit">[update]</a></sup>, <a href="/wiki/Plants_of_the_World_Online" title="Plants of the World Online">Plants of the World Online</a> recognized the following species:<sup id="cite_ref-POWO_30016176-2_1-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-POWO_30016176-2-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;"> <ul><li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_alaica" title="Mentha alaica">Mentha alaica</a></i> <small>Boriss.</small></li> <li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_aquatica" title="Mentha aquatica">Mentha aquatica</a></i> <small>L.</small> – water mint, marsh mint</li> <li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_arvensis" title="Mentha arvensis">Mentha arvensis</a></i> <small>L.</small> – corn mint, wild mint, Japanese peppermint, field mint, banana mint</li> <li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_atrolilacina" title="Mentha atrolilacina">Mentha atrolilacina</a></i> <small><a href="/wiki/Barry_Conn" title="Barry Conn">B.J.Conn</a> & D.J.Duval</small> – slender mint</li> <li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_australis" title="Mentha australis">Mentha australis</a></i> <small>R.Br.</small> – Australian mint</li> <li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_canadensis" title="Mentha canadensis">Mentha canadensis</a></i> <small>L.</small> – Canada mint, American wild mint</li> <li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_cervina" title="Mentha cervina">Mentha cervina</a></i> <small>L.</small> – Hart's pennyroyal</li> <li><i><a href="/wiki/Mentha_cunninghamii" title="Mentha cunninghamii">Mentha cunninghamii</a></i> <small>(Benth.)
