1. Aconitum naviculare (Brühl) Stapf (Ranunculaceae) (Drungtso 1999). The same species was identified as bong nga dkar po by Wangyal (2020)

With red or yellow caudices. Low toxicity (Ma 2015).
The Shel gong treats 4 groupes of aconites : white, red, yellow and black aconites (bong nga dkar po, bong nga dmar po, bong nga ser po and bong nga nag po). The distinctive feature is the colour of the caudex, the lower stem part next to the root. The first 3 groups are considered as less toxic, and the last group, black aconites, as highly toxic. At the end of the notice of the black aconites follows a part where outer, inner and secret names for each of the four groups are given, as well as explanations on further namings.
