  • Comment on (A): Centaurium erythraea Rafn., common centaury, Echtes Tausendgüldenkraut

    The identification of CENTAURIA MINOR with C. erythrea is secure.[1] It seems that the OE name lytle culmille has not been established because the plant has also been referred to by a number of other names: →eorþ-gealla, →felterre, →centaurie, →hirde-wyrt.
