Abstract

The Korean medicinal plant name written in Chinese script, Jingyo, is somewhat confusingly used in the Korean modern literature. This name was assigned to at least three species, with examples being Gentiana macrophylla, Aconitum pseudolaeve, and Justicia procumbens. To clarify the taxonomic identity of Jingyo, these names were examined based on the Chinese classics and Korean classics and compared them with the modern flora of both China and Korea. In China, Jingyo was considered as Justicia gendarussa or Gentiana macrophylla. In Korea, Jingyo was considered as A. pseudolaeve or J. procumbens. However, it was concluded that Jingyo is not distributed on the Korean Peninsula. In addition, although the Hangeul name Jinbeom was the result of the misreading of the Chinese script Jinbong, another Chinese term for Jingyo, this name is used in many modern studies related plant taxonomy. Hence, we also propose Jinbeom as the conserved Hangeul name of A. pseudolaeve.

<향약채취월령>을 비롯하여 우리나라 고전 본초서에 나오는 진교는 지금까지 큰잎용담, 진범, 그리고 쥐꼬리망초 등으로 알려져 왔다. 관점에 따라 서로 다른 실체를 인정해온 것이다. 그러나 중국 고전 본초서와 우리나라 고전 본초서를 검토한 결과 중국 고전 본초서에 나오는 진교는 국내에는 분포하지 않은 큰잎 용담 또는 소박골로 파악되었다. 현대 중국 식물학 관련 문헌에서는 진교를 큰잎용담으로 간주하고 있다. 우리나라 고전 문헌에 나오는 진교는 진범 또는 쥐꼬리망초로 간주되었으나, 우리나라에는 진교가 분포하지 않은 것으로 파악되었다. 식물명 진범은 진교의 이체자명을 잘못 읽은 것으로, 중국 고전과 우리나라 고전에 나오는 진교와는 무관한 것으로 파악되었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 현재 많은 식물학 문헌에서 진범이라는 식물명을 사용하고 있다. 따라서 국명 역시 학명과 마찬가지로 국명 역시 "명칭 사용의 안정성"을 고려하여 진범이라는 국명을 사용할 것으로 제안한다.
