The biology for three of four closely related taxa, eastern black nightshade, Solanum ptycanthum Dun. ex DC; black nightshade, S. nigrum L.; and hairy nightshade, S. sarrachoides Sendt., weedy in various parts of the country, is discussed. American nightshade, S. americanum Mill., a name once applied to S. ptycanthum, is actually very rare in Canada and its biology is only partially discussed in this paper.Key words: Eastern black nightshade, black nightshade, hairy nightshade, weed biology, Solanum spp.
