Uncaria tomentosa

''Uncaria tomentosa'' is a woody vine found in the tropical jungles of South and Central America. In several languages it is known as cat's claw because of its claw-shaped thorns (English cat's claw, although that name is also used for other plants; Spanish uña de gato). It is also known as vilcacora; Polish journalist Roman Warszewski claims the invention of the latter name by combining the qechua words 'vilca' + 'cora'.〔()〕
It is used in herbalism for a variety of ailments.
==Description==
''Uncaria tomentosa'' is a liana deriving its name from hook-like thorns that resemble the claws of a cat. ''U. tomentosa'' can grow up to 30 m (100 ft) tall, climbing by means of these thorns. The leaves are elliptic with a smooth edge, and grow in opposite whorls of two. Cat's claw is indigenous to the Amazon rainforest, with its habitat being restricted primarily to the tropical areas of South and Central America.
