MATERIA MEDICA OF THE ANCIENT CHINESE. 471 
Phon 20, LXXXU, 4, 5:—G fa. A yellow root 
figured. 
Sres., Qeon., 260 :—Zanthoxylon kibada. Sinice : WE 7K. 
Lignum ad luteum tingendum maxime estimatum. Cortex 
habetur febrifugus.—According to Ivo KRISKE [ Franon. & 
Sav., Enum. Jap., II, 693] kiwada is the Japanese name 
for Phellodendron amurense. ; 
Thus, it seems, the Chinese names po mu and huang po, 
in China as well as in J apan, are applied to both the Evodia 
glauca and the Phellodendron amurense. Both belong to the 
same order Rutacew. 
The /y HY siao (small) po [v. supra} has a special article 
in the P. [XXXVa, 6]. 
T‘ao Huna-x1n¢ calls it F— HE tsz‘ po and says it is a 
small tree resembling the shi lix (pomegranate). Bitter 
yellow bark. Another kind, which is provided with spines, 
has likewise a yellow bark. 
Su Kune [7th cent.]:—The siao po grows between 
rocks in the mountains. That which grows in Siang yang 
[in Hu pel, App. 306], east of the Hien shan® moun tae, 
yields the best drug. It is also called [lj Hy #§ shan shi liu 
(mountain pomegranate), for its branches and leaves are not 
unlike those of the pomegranate, but the flowers are different. 
The fruit is small, black and globular like that of the 1s li tsz* 
[Rhamnus. See 341] or the ni cheng tsz* [ Ligustrum. 
See 342]. But the bark of the tree is white, not yellow as 
Tso Hunc-Kina asserts. It is now kept in store in the 
Court Of Bacrifices © The spiny tsz‘ po, noticed by the same 
author, is the ji} BE ts‘s‘ yo (spiny po). It has small leaves 
and differs from the siao po- 
” DRE IL} to the $.H. of Siang yang fa.
