The Korean folk medicine has been used to cure several diseases among the peoples and the folk remedy has so deep root. But the botanical origin of the folk medicine has been no pharmacognostical confirmation on it. It was investigated from March, 1986 to June, 1993 in order to verify its origin by describing botanical name, commercial name, and scientific name.

Objectives : Sik-bang-pung (植防風, Peucedani Japonici Radix), the root of Peucedanum japonicum Thunberg (Apiaceae), has often been used as a substitute for Bang-pung (防風, Saposhnikoviae Radix) in the past, but recently it is treated as a counterfeit of Bang-pung or a kind of 'Jeonho (Peucedani Radix)'. Hence, it is crucial to investigate the origin of herbal name to provide appropriate usage of Sik-bang-pung. Methods : The classic and contemporary literatures regarding to the herbal medicines and botanical nomenclature were searched to find the herbal and botanical origins of Bang-pung and Sik-bang-pung, respectively. Result : The botanical descriptions of Bang-pung (防風) were consistent throughout the classic literatures and its botanical species was determined as Saposhnikovia divaricata Schischkin (Apiaceae) in the compendium. In the literatures published in the Joseon Dynasty, 'Byeong-pung-na-mul' was recorded as the medicinal plant of Bang-pung, but its botanical species could not be confirmed. In Japanese literatures, Bang-gyu (防葵) was confirmed as Mok-dan-bang-pung (牡丹防風); botan-bōfū in Japanese), which was determined as the herbal name of the root of 'Gaet-girum-namul (P. japonicum)' in Korea during the period of Japanese rule. The roots of Gaet-girum-namul was medicinally named as Mok-dan-bang-pung (牡丹防風), Sik-bang-pung (植防風), or San-bang-pung (山防風) in the past decades in Korea. Among them, Sik-bang-pung might be chosen as the herbal name, but its nominal origin could not be found. Conclusions : The herbal name, Sik-bang-pung, was presumably affected by Japanese botanical nomenclature. Although its medicinal application is still controversial, Sik-bang-pung should be considered an independent herbal medicine.

곰팡이의 명명을 규정하는 규약이 '국제식물명명규약(International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, ICBN)'에서 '국제 조류, 균류, 식물 명명 규약(International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi and plants, ICN)'으로 바뀌게 되었다(2011.7). ICBN에서 ICN으로 바뀌게 되면서 많은 변화가 있지만 가장 큰 변화는 곰팡이의 이중명명을 더 이상 허용하지 않는다(2013. 1)는 것이다. 새로운 이름을 가질 곰팡이는 이 규칙에 따라 명명하면 되지만 문제는 2013년 1월 1일 이전에 완전세대와 불완전 세대에 근거하여 두 개의 이름을 이미 가지고 있는 10,000-12,000개의 곰팡이의 경우이다. 우선 ICN에는 이에 대한 혼란을 막기 위해서 2013년 1월 1일 전에 이전의 명명규약에 의하여 보고된 학명은 유효성과 합법성을 유지한 채 우선권의 원칙에 따라 서로 경쟁한다는 조항을 추가하였다. 하지만 결국은 세대에 관계없이 하나의 곰팡이 이름을 사용해야 할 것이며 이에 따라 세계 균학계는 곰팡이 분야별 작업반 또는 위원회를 결성하는 등 바쁘게 움직이고 있다. 일균일명 체계로의 전환에 대한 배경, 경과, 그리고 향후 전망에 대하여 상술하였다. 이 외에도 전자출판이 유효출판으로 인정(2012.1)되게 되었고, 영어신종기술도 정당출판으로 인정되게 되었으며(2012. 1), 또한 신종의 학명과 필수정보를 공인정보저장소에 등록하는 것이 의무화 된다(2013. 1). 곰팡이의 새로운 명명규약과 일균일명 체계로의 전환에 대한 국제 균학계의 움직임을 국내에 한글로 쉽게 소개하였다.

It is an essential prerequisite to use exact botanical origin of crude drugs for a therapeutic effect. The botanical origin also affects the standard for quality control. During the past decades, Korea, China and Japan have developed individually their own official compendia for crude drugs to tune with the times. This study was accomplished to offer basic data and appropriate suggestions to rebuilding the botanical origins of crude drugs in Korean official compendia according to international harmonization. For this, the botanical origin of crude drugs in official compendia of these three countries were compared based on the scientific name internationally accepted. As results, there were five crude drugs defined as plants or animal of which family were different. Fourteen crude drugs showed the botanical origin of different genus and eighty eight of different species. In addition, usage part and collection season differed in twelve and four crude drugs, respectively.

The purpose of this paper is to analyzed of pronunciationi of botanical names of landscape plants. This study includes the plant that are possible to use as woody landscape material as well as both the native and foreign plants that are already used. Botanical name must be divided into syllables. Every latin word has as many syllables as it has separate vowels or diphthongs. The last syllables is never accentd. The next to the last syllables is called the penult, the third from the last syllables is called the antepenult. The pronuciationi of latinized commemorative names is here that the rules are most apt to be disregarded or ignored.

Pygmaeopremna herbacea (Roxb.) Mold. (Verbenaceae) is a small herb or sometimes an undershrub arising from a perennial rootstock. The dry roots are dark muddy brown in colour having root nodules. Its extensively developed roots are widely used in tribal medicine. They are used as an aphrodisiac and for the treatment of gout, rheumatism and ulcers. This study deals with the detailed pharmacognostical evaluation of the dried roots and root nodules of P. herbacea which includes macro and microscopic studies, determination of physicochemical parameters and chemoprofiling of the extract using HPTLC fingerprint profiles. It was observed that the roots consist of a well developed cortical region consisting of tangentially elongated thin walled parenchymatous cells and contain polygonal stone cells as well as compound starch grains. Also the pith was parenchymatous. The HPTLC fingerprint profile of the methanolic extract showed the presence of seven major bands. Such an analysis may thus be utilized in identifying P. herbacea and in differenciating it from other species which are similar to it or are used as its adultrants/substitutes under the same vernacular name of Bharangi.

A new distribution of Trichosanthes cucumeroides (Ser.) Maxim. ex Franch. & Sav. is discovered in Korea. This species was collected from forest margins on Ando Island, Ando-ri, Nam-myeon, Yeosu-si, in Jeollanam-do. T. cucumeroides is clearly distinguished from other species of the genus by having three- or five-lobed leaf blades, linear-lanceolate and minute bracts with entire margins, and oblong to triangular-ovoid seeds. Here, we provide precise description, a taxonomic key to the Korean Trichosanthes species, illustrations, and photographs of its habitat. The Korean name for the species is established as 'Bul-geun-ha-neul-ta-ri' considering the reddish color of its fruit.

Berberis tinctoria (Berberidaceae), commonly known as Nilgiri Barberry is a common allied species to B. aristata, used in India Traditional Systems of Medicine by the name of 'Daruharidra' for skin disease, jaundice, affection of eyes, and rheumatism. Keeping this in view, in the present study attempts have been made to identify marker characters of B. tinctoria. Some of the diagnostic features of the root are patches of pericyclic fibre, pitted sclerieds, crystals, berberine containing cells and heterocyclic medullary rays. Besides, the physicochemical characters such as total ash; acid insoluble ash; alcohol and water soluble extractive; tannins; sugar and starch percentages has also shown some variations. The percentage of berberine as berberine hydrochloride was also calculated through HPTLC densitometric method and it was found almost similar to B. aristata, B. asiatica and B. chitria i.e. 3.36%. Thus it can be explored as a possible source of substitute to B.aristata.
