Aconitum lycoctonum (wolf's-bane[2] or northern wolf's-bane)[3] is a species of flowering plant in the genus Aconitum, of the family Ranunculaceae, native to much of Europe and northern Asia.[4][5]
Lycoctonum is a rendering in modern Latin of the traditional name "wolf's-bane".[6]
It is an herbaceous perennial plant growing to 1 m tall. The leaves are palmately lobed with four to six deeply cut lobes. The flowers are 18–25 mm long, dark violet, rarely pale yellow.[7]
Like all species in the genus, it is poisonous.[7]
