China Morada.—Under this name there appear to be used in Bolivia several barks. One of these has been ascertained by Arati and Canzoneri (L'Orosi, Feb., 1889) to be the product of a rubiaceous tree, Pogonopus tubulosus (Rich.) K. Sch., and to contain an alkaloid, moradeine, besides a fluorescent substance, moradin, allied to scolopetin. (See P. J., xix.)
