Protégée / réglementée — non proposée — On India's export negative list; endangered
Mishmi teeta, or gold thread, is a small, rare perennial herb of the buttercup family with glossy, deeply divided basal leaves, small white flowers and a short, bright yellow, intensely bitter rhizome. It grows in the cool, moist forests of the Mishmi Hills of Arunachal Pradesh and nearby parts of China and Myanmar.
The rhizome, known as Mamira, has been used by local communities and in traditional preparations as a bitter digestive herb. It is endangered and listed on India's export negative list, so it is protected and restricted in trade and not offered here.
