[Trinity] Plant identification in Trinity College MS O.2.48 Apuleii Herbarium

[Koen G]

There may have been some mixing up going on here. The order goes like this:

74. Celidonia
72. ?Verbascum?
73. Heraclea
75. Strignos
76. Senecion

I think there is no doubt that the name "Barbascus" refers to Verbascum. B and V are easily merged or confused (see modern Spanish) and the same goes for A and E (see transcriptions from Arabic, Hindi etc.). But the thing with the brown cactus is weird indeed...
