| Notes: | Label source: A small plant common in cultivated ground. It is erect about one foot high, dicotomous, glabrous; stem acutely four angled; leaves linear lanceolate; pedicels one flowered, axillary; capsule nearly round open all fibrous. The plant turns bl, ack when dry. It is kept in the druggists shops at Goa, and is in use there as an alterative in low forms of fever. It is administered in combination with Adiantum lunulatum and Hydrocotyle asiatica. I have never seen it in the Bombay shops. Dr Dymock | ||||
