Aconitum lycoctonum (wolf's-bane[1] or northern wolfsbane) (Hindi : Bikh बिख )[2] is a species of flowering plant in the genus Aconitum, of the family Ranunculaceae, native to Europe and northern Asia.[3][4]
Lycoctonum is a rendering in modern Latin of the traditional name "wolf's bane".[5]
It is an herbaceous perennial plant growing to 1 m tall. The leaves are palmately lobed with four to six deeply cut lobes. The flowers are 18–25 mm long, dark violet, rarely pale yellow.[6]
Like all species in the genus, it is poisonous.[6]
