Fridericia chica, the cricket-vine, puca panga, chica, carayurú (Spanish), carajuru or crajiru (Portuguese), is a medicinal plant in the family Bignoniaceae, also used for cosmetics. An orange-red dye called chica, crajiru or carayurú is obtained from boiling the leaves.[2] It is used by some native South American peoples to stain the skin.[3]
