Phyllanthus warnockii, the sand reverchonia,[2] is a plant species of the family Phyllanthaceae. It is a sand dune annual and confined to the Southwestern United States and adjacent Mexico.[citation needed] It is poisonous to mammals.[3] Members of the Hopi Tribe in northeastern Arizona sometimes traditionally used the berries to oil and season piki cooking slabs.[4] It was also used by the Hopi medicinally in cases of postpartum hemorrhage.[5]
