Batrachite
Batrachites were gemstones, supposedly found in frogs, to which ancient physicians and naturalists attributed the virtue of resisting poison. They resembled frogs in color. Toadstone is a similar mythical stone, supposed to be found in toads. The term batrachite is also used for a batrachian (or frog) fossil. ==References==
