  • Comment on (A): Peucedanum officinale L., hog's fennel, Echter Haarstrang

    The L lemma GOTUNA is not documented anywhere.[1] Rusche (1996,647) notes: "The botanical name for 'cammock' is ONONIS, from Gk. ονος 'donkey.' It is possible, therefore, that the element -UNA in the lemma represents this word for donkey."
