Leaf venation pattern to recognize austral South American medicinal species of “cow’s hoof” (Bauhinia L., fabaceae)

The leaves extracts of some species of Bauhinia L. s.l. are consumed to treat diabetes, inflammation, pains and several disorders in traditional medicine in austral South America. Despite its wide use and commercialization, sale is not controlled, and botanical quality of samples is not always adequ...
