Whole entry missing in B efjp, this seems to indicated that this reference was added only later.
Mẽdana ACD


Translation:

Mendana: see above in the entry cataputia {i.e. Cataputia maior} and below in the entry meubethne {i.e. Meubethne}.


Commentary:

mendana:
is a misreading of *meudana, cf Siggel (1950: 67) s.v. ﻣﺎﻫﻮﺑﺪﺍﻧﺔ, ﻣﺎﻫﻮﺕ, ﻣﺎﻫﻮﺩﺍﻧﺔ /māhūbdāna/, /māhūt/, /māhūdāna/ Euphorbia lathyris.

mendana is also a synonym for Hab elmeluch.
