Botanical Description
Ge Shan Xiao ("across-the-mountain whistle/echo") is a regional folk-medicine name that cannot be reliably matched to a single botanical species in the principal modern references consulted. The same name has been applied in different districts to disparate species, and Bensky and Gamble, the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and the standard Zhong Yao Da Ci Dian entries consulted do not provide an unambiguous identification. Without verified correspondence, no morphology, parts used or therapeutic actions can responsibly be given. The entry is treated as botanically unidentifiable.
