Kino, see Angophora .

[Kino is the name of various astringent gums, obtained from several plants, principally Pterocarpus marsupium (Indian Kino) and P. erinaceus (African Kino). These belong to the N. O. Leguminosæ. Under the name of "Kino Australiense" Allen gives symptoms of "Red gum." These are nearly identical with those obtained by F. Kopp, and recorded under Angophora . ( which see ). Lippe gives under Kino (origin not stated) "Stitches in ear (r). ─ Suppuration after inflammation of ear."]
