Polygonum corrigioloides, the Euphrates knotgrass, is a species of flowering plant in the family Polygonaceae.[2] It is native to northern Yemen, eastern Syria, Iraq, Iran, the Transcaucasus, Central Asia, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.[1] An annual or perennial, it is typically found on riverbanks.[2] Its nutlets are edible and archeological evidence suggests that they were heavily relied upon by local peoples during the Younger Dryas.[2]
