Myrsinaceae…
Myrsinaceae, the myrsine family, is a group of mostly tropical trees and shrubs with leathery leaves and small flowers, closely related to the primrose family (Primulaceae), into which it is now often merged. The only listed remedy, Karaka (from the New Zealand tree Corynocarpus laevigatus), is actually classified today in the separate family Corynocarpaceae, so Clarke's placement under Myrsinaceae is outdated.Remedies said to end or reduce the action of Karaka, for example if it has caused an unwanted reaction.
