单词 | pareira |
释义 | pareiran. Now chiefly historical. More fully pareira root: the dried root of any of several tropical American climbing plants of the genus Chondrodendron (family Menispermaceae), or of the pantropical menispermaceous climbing plant Cissampelos pareira (velvetleaf); (also) the plants themselves, esp. Chondrodendon tomentosum or (now more fully spurious pareira or false pareira) Cissampelos pareira. Also: a drug made from the roots of these plants, used esp. as a diuretic.The medicinal root was originally thought, by Linnaeus and others, to be derived from Cissampelos pareira, but was later attributed to Chondrodendron species.
