El morró o anagall (Anagallis arvensis) és una planta menuda de la família de les primulàcies, que presenta petites flors taronges o blaves. Estudis recents de biologia molecular indiquen que tot el gènere Anagallis hauria d'inclore's en la familia Myrsinaceae.[1][2]
És molt comuna en tota Europa i és generalment considerada una mala herba.
Les tiges fan aproximadament 45 cm de llargada i s'estenen pel sòl. Les fulles sèssils creixen oposades. Les petites flors taronja creixen des de primavera fins a tardor.
La subespècie Anagallis arvensis ssp. foemina té les flors blaves. Molts botànics la consideren una espècie a part, anomenada Anagallis foemina.

Anagallis arvensis (syn. Lysimachia arvensis), commonly known as the scarlet pimpernel, red pimpernel, red chickweed, poor man's barometer, poor man's weather-glass,[1] shepherd's weather glass or shepherd's clock, is a species of low-growing annual plant with brightly coloured flowers, most often scarlet but also bright blue and sometimes pink. The native range of the species is Europe and Western Asia and North Africa.[2] The species has been distributed widely by humans, either deliberately as an ornamental flower or accidentally.[3] A. arvensis is now naturalised almost worldwide, with a range that encompasses the Americas, Central and East Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, Malesia, the Pacific Islands, Australasia and Southern Africa.[4][5][6]
Traditionally included in the primrose family Primulaceae, the genus Anagallis was placed in the family Myrsinaceae[7] until that family in turn was included in Primulaceae in the APG III system. The genus Anagallis is included in Lysimachia by some authors.[8]
This common European plant is generally considered a weed and is an indicator of light soils, though it grows opportunistically in clay soils as well. The origin of the name pimpernel comes from late Middle English pympernele [1400–50], derived from Middle French pimprenelle, from Old French piprenelle, and ultimately from Vulgar Latin *piperīnella (piper 'pepper' + -īn- '-ine' + -ella diminutive suffix).
The flower serves as the emblem of the fictional hero the Scarlet Pimpernel.
