s. m, small shrub (Flacourtia sepiaria) which occurs about Delhi, in the arid tract to the west, in the Salt Range, and on the skirts of the Suleman Range. Its wood is too small to be of use, and the spines are so strong that its twigs cannot be eaten by cattle, but the leaves are thrashed out for them. The fruit is small, hard, and insipid, but is said to be eaten by people.
