Botanical Description
The pinyin name Mao Yan Cao (literally 'cat-eye grass') does not correspond to a standard entry in the principal Chinese materia medica references consulted, and no confident botanical identification can be made from the title alone. Several regional folk herbs share comparable colloquial names but differ widely in genus and family, so attribution to any one species would be speculative. Editorial fields are therefore left unpopulated pending verification against the source record or supplemental ethnobotanical documentation.
