| Remarks | Gentiana macrophylla Pall. is called Jingyō, Shijingyō, Saidaigyō, Daijingyō, daigyō, Rabokugyō, Sajingyō and Sagyō in Japan. G. decumbens L. is called Syojingyō. G. dahurica Fisch. is called Syojingyō, Kujingyō, Kubijingyō and Sanjingyō. There are many defectives and fakes.

Koujingyo, produced in Sichuan Prov., is the root of Salvia przewalskii Maxim. of family Labiatae. Korean Jingyō is the root of Aconitum loczyanum Rapaics of family Ranunculaceae. Wajingyo, distributed in Japan in the past, was the root of Pulsatilla cerunua (Thunb. ex Murray) Bercht. et Opiz. of family Ranunculaceae (Jap. Name: Okinagusa), and it was fake. | ||||||
