Paumari Indians

Tanaecium noctumum . A psychoactive snuff called koribo is prepared by Brasilian Paumari Indians from roasted, pulverized leaves of this plant with tobacco (Prance etal. 1977). Tea of the root-bark is also psychoacdve, apparently sedative (Schultes Hofmann 1980). It has been reported that merely smelling plant has provoked psychoactive effects in researchers (Schultes Hofinann 1980). The chemistry of this intriguing drug is obscure.
