The Natural History of Pliny, Volume 4 (of 6)

Note 1602 — BOOK XX. REMEDIES DERIVED FROM THE GARDEN PLANTS. (continued 2)

John Bostock translation

Fée is of opinion that Pliny has here confounded “cunila” with “conyza,” and that he means the κόνυζα μικρά of Dioscorides, B. iii. c. 136, the κόνυζα θῆλυς of Theophrastus, Hist. Plant. B. vi. c. 2, supposed to be the Inula pulicaria of Linnæus. See B. xxi. c. 32.
