The applicable botanical reference is Tribulus terrestris L. Gokshura and Chota Gokhru are names used for this material.

Is the listed part fruit, root or seed?

This listing is for fruit and its powdered form. The spiny outer fruit should not be described as separate cleaned seeds; roots are a different plant part.

Which sizes can I choose?
