French Guiana: Cayenne, Jardin pnma, Kodjoed 91 (CAY); Commune de Remire, Ile de Cayenne, Wittingthon 59 (CAY).</p><p>Uses: Generally found as a Weed, sometimes cultivated as a medicinal plant for the leaves, which are used as an anthelmintic (vermifuge) in the Guianas (Cook 250; Ostendorf (1962); and Moretti 913). The French Guianans use an infusion of six leaves mixed with salt in a cup, which is reportedly very beneficial for the liver, and as a children's vermifuge (Oldeman B.3909). According to Henkel 3467, the plant is used as a malaria treatment by Wapishiana Amerindians of Guyana.</p><p>Vernacular names: Guyana: matouosh; mastruz (Portuguese Guyanese); metroshi (Macushi Amerindian).
