Anybody know anything about the Cohoba plant? a/k/a Anadenanthera peregrina? What do the locals call it?

I got your message, no need for caps.
I guess you didn't read my message. I am asking if anyone knows the name of a tree.
Rocky, don't be so uptight.
piptadenias
It is still a drug, a hallucinogenic.
In the Caribbean Islands and in South America, piptadenias are known by various popular names, such as cebil, coboba, cohoba, cojoba, curupa, curuva, hataj, kurupa, kurupayara, niopo, nupa, ?opo, parica, vilca, yopo, yupa.
I have never looked for the tree, so I cant even tell you if it exists in the DR.

U.S. FEDERAL LEGAL SUMMARY
Anadenanthera spp.
CONTROLLED No
STATUS Ambiguous
SCHEDULE May Contain Schedule I Chemical
CLASSIFICATION Hallucinogen
Neither Anadenanthera colubrina, Anadenathera peregrina nor any other Anadenanthera species are controlled species in the United States. Live plants and seeds are legal to buy, sell or possess. However, DMT, one of the chemicals contained in the plant, is Schedule I in the U.S. Practically, this means that if an extraction is done on DMT containing Anadenanthera species, the resulting DMT is illegal to possess. We are unaware of any cases in which an individual has been prosecuted after doing a home extraction of an Anadenanthera plant, although it seems possible that a few such cases might exist.
Large scale (especially commercial) extraction of DMT from Anadenanthera species falls into the realm of "clearly illegal" and would very likely be prosecuted. It is also quite possible that importation of DMT containing Anadenanthera species into the United States could result in problems with customs, especially if large volumes are imported.
Not sure what Dominican Law would have to say but I doubt they would know anything about it.
For the drug warriors out there, lighten up, we here to discuss not to judge.
