Two names, one species
The name on the pouch, Heteropterys aphrodisiaca, was published by Machado in 1949 in the Brazilian journal Rodriguésia. The World Checklist of Vascular Plants now places it in synonymy under Heteropterys tomentosa, a name Adrien de Jussieu published in 1833 in the Flora Brasiliae Meridionalis. We keep the trade name in the product title because it is the name printed on the label and used by the supplier, and we give the accepted name alongside it.
Native range
According to the same checklist, Heteropterys tomentosa is native to south-eastern and west-central Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay and Peru. The genus Heteropterys belongs to the Malpighiaceae.
The label
The cover photo shows a kraft stand-up pouch with a green Maya Herbs label reading Nó de Cachorro, Heteropterys aphrodisiaca and Powdered, with a Made in Brazil seal and an empty net-weight field. The second photo shows only the powder.
