  • Comment on (A): Hyoscyamus niger L., henbane, Schwarzes Bilsenkraut

    Contrary to Lindheim's suggestion (note on Dur 189) GINGERALIS is not related to GINGIBER, but it is a well recorded name for Hyoscyamus L.; e.g. cf. CGL 3,591,6: GINGIRALIS IUSQUIAMI, and cf. André (1985, s.v. GINGARALIS).

Read IUSQUIAMI.

MED (s.v. hen 2) cites the gloss "GINGERALIS heunebel" following Cockayne and suggests "? read hennebel". It is not comprehensible why the editors of the MED did not use Lindheim"s edition of the Durham plant glossary.
