Notes: Label source: The sample of 'Sarghine' is apparently the root of C.littoralis L., or perhaps of C.telephiifolia Pourr., if that is regarded as a separate species. Probably a saponin or similar substance is present in the root. Dragendorff (Die Heilpflanz, en) states that C.telephiifolia is used medicinally in Morocco. LAB 11.2.27 See letter
