蒺䔧(上自栗反下力尸反尒雅薋蒺䔧即布地蔓生子有三角者經文作𨪏錤未見所出錤音基鎡錤鋤也非今所用)。

Tribulus / puncture vine (蒺䔧): For the upper [character], the fanqie is 自栗 [jí]; for the lower, the fanqie is 力尸 [lí]. The Erya says: '薋 is the 蒺䔧.' It spreads along the ground, creeping and trailing, and its seeds have three spines. The sūtra text writes it as 𨪏錤, which has no known textual basis. 錤 has the pronunciation 基 [jī]; a 鎡錤 is a hoe, which is not what is used here.
