For this plant name no oblique casus are recorded (the phrase þe man ... 7 oþrum naman ... is not conclusive), therefore it can be either m. i-decl. (like slite 'slit, Schlitz) or f. n-decl; cf. the plant name →lufestice, which in the LB only shows the inflections typically for i-decl. According to Hunger (1935,167) in the L HA XVIII ORBICULARIS does denote Aristolochia pallida W.K., a mediterranean plant, but the old names of Aristolochia and Cyclamen species were often confused (cf. Marzell 2000,I,389). On the importance of C. europaeum cf. André (1956, s.v. ORBICULARIS), Dur 118 (CYCLAMINOS eortheppel uel slite uel attorlathe), Dur 258 (ORBICULOSA slite), Laud 1088 (ORBICULARIS.I.slite) and the respective notes.
Etymology: cf. Lindheim's note 118: "Ae. slite 'Schlitz, Riß, Biß' zu slītan 'schleißen' erklärt sich aus der gezahnten Blätterform des Alpenveilchens." Also cf. Holthausen (1974, s.v.).
