Resum:
Spanish Burning bush (Dictamnus hispanicus), is a endemic species of the Eastern half of the Iberian peninsula, which has outstanding relevance in the province of Alicante (Valencian Community, Spain) due to its traditional use, as a component of the 'herberos'-herbal spirit drinks-. However, there is still little information on other uses of the species in the same province. In order to increase this knowledge, semi-structured interviews (n=90) have been made, and information on its distribution range has been completed using Geographic Information Systems; the species has been rederred to 27 1×1 km UTM squares. 5 phytonyms in Valencian language (74.44% of the informants) and 6 in Castilian or Spanish (25.66%) have been collected. 9 applications uses have been identified: liqueurs (spirits), menstruation regulation, respiratory diseases relieve, intestinal inflammations, alleviation of hard digestion, aerophagia, bad breath, abortion, flavouring cabinets and prevention against the proliferation of moths.
