contents Let $\calP$ be a general pencil of curves of degree $d$ in the projective plane. In this paper we review the computation of the number of curves in $\calP$ that have a hyperflex line, a flex bitangent line or a tritangent line. Then we focus on the curves in the dual plane described by the flex tangents and the bitangents of the curves of $\calP$ and the curves in the original plane described by the flexes and the points of bitangencies of the curves in $\calP$. Some of these curves have been studied already: we mainly focus here on the ones that still have not been treated systematically, and we compute their degree, genus, and singularities.
