Korean folk medicine 'GulGeoRiIp' has been used to gastroentric trouble and indigestion from drinking. The botanical origin of the crude drug has never been studied pharmacognostically. To clarify the botanical origin of GulGeoRiIp, the morphological and anatomical characteristics of Daphniphyllum species growing in Korea, i.e. Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq. and D. glaucescens Blume were studied. As a result, GulGeoRiIp was proved to be the leaf of Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq.(Euphorbiaceae).
