1 locoweed
( loco [lóko] [see above])Missouri: 1844. Any of several poisonous leguminous plants that cause a sort of distemper in cattle known as loco (disease). The DARE notes that the two most common plants of this name are the milk vetch (a plant of the genus Astragalus), and Oxytropis lambertii.Also called loco, loco grass, loco plant, loco vetch. Santamaría references loco as a plant commonly called acacia in Mexico. However, he notes that this plant belongs to the genus Robinia, while English sources indicate that most plants known as locoweed are of the genera Oxytropis and Astragalus. -

3 frijolillo
(Sp. model spelled same [frixolíjo] < frijol [see above] plus diminutive suffix - illo; 'little bean')1) Texas: 1886. According to the DARE, "an evergreen shrub or tree ( Sophora secundiflora)."Alternate forms: frigolito, frijolilla, frijolito, frijollito.Also called big-drunk bean, coral bean, mescal bean, mountain laurel, whiskey bean.2) DARE: 1947. A locoweed (including Oxytropis lambertii). See locoweed. Santamaría references many plants by this name, including various leguminous plants native to Mexico. One of these is the S. secundiflora, a northern variety of colorín known as the frijolito in Texas. The seeds of this plant contain a pungent, highly poisonous alkaloid that Indians ingest in small doses to induce intoxication, delirium, and finally, a deep sleep that lasts for several days. It is probably because of its narcotic properties that the plant is known in the Southwest as the whiskey bean or big-drunk bean. Cobos references frijolillo simply as another name for locoweed. -

17 alfilaria
( alfilería [alfilería] < alfilerillo < alfiler < Arabic al-hhilel 'pin,' plus the diminutive suffix -illo; hence, 'small pin')OED: 1868. Acommon forage in the Southwest, also known as pin grass ( Erodium cicu-tarium). According to Cobos, alfilería (also alfilerillo) is used in New Mexican and Southern Colorado Spanish to denote a plant of the Cranesbill family called pinclover. He indicates that the term derives from alfilerillo, which the DRAE defines as an herbaceous plant used as forage in Argentina and Chile. It is likely that the Argentine and Chilean varieties are unrelated to the southwestern alfilaria or alfile-ria, but share the common characteristic of a pinlike shape. No doubt the cowboy distinguished among the various types of forage that cattle would eat, since there was always the danger that they might ingest locoweed or some other poisonous plant.Alternate forms: alfilena, alfileria, alfilerilla, filaree, fileree. -
18 garbancillo

Referenced in the DARE as "a milk vetch," including the Astragalus mollissimus and the A. wootonii. Santamaría glosses it as a bush ( Brongniartia parryi) that grows on the Mexican altiplano. In Baja California, the name garbancillo de buey is given to the A. leucopis. Cobos references garbancillo as locoweed.Alternate form: garbanzilla. -
