Acridocarpus natalitius, the moth fruit, is a species of plant in the Malpighiaceae family.

[2] Dark glands may be present where the petiole meets the leaf or on the underside of the lamina.

[2][3] The way that they are fused, makes the fruit look like a moth with spread wings, given the plant its common name.

[2][4][5] It ranges from Pondoland to Limpopo in South Africa, and eastwards to Eswatini and Mozambique.

Intelezi may also be sprinkled around a homestead during a thunderstorm, used to strengthen fighting sticks or to induce vomiting in order to cleanse a whole family.

[2] Herdboys may also place a piece of root under their tongues to avoid punishment if the cattle wandered into crops.
