Dear Iris :

Here is a good tip for you on hermodactylus : look in Oribase(syn. 9
cap.add., p. 401, 5) and in Alexandre of Tralles (2, 267: 268-269) or CGL
3., 589, 66).

Thanks again for your kindest help !

Sincerely,

André J. Fabre M.D.

I still don't know where I can find references,

Have you done a Web search?
Hermodactylus is a genus of irises. You should be able to find something,
perhaps under iris or Iridaceae.
