Teesdalia nudicaulis, or the common shepherd's-cress, is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae. It is native to Madeira, Morocco, and nearly all of Europe, but has gone locally extinct in Switzerland and Hungary. Additionally, it has been introduced to the east and west coasts of the United States and to southern Chile. An annual, it is found in meadows, fields, and roadsides, typically in anthropogenically disturbed soils.
