Background and aims: Currently, many species, native and alien, called “thistles” are widely distributed in Argentina. During 18th Century several Jesuit publications mentioned “thistles” in this country, as the illustrated work made by Florian Paucke. The main goal of this work is to gather, from writing sources of the 18th Century, plant records called as “thistles” or similar names; secondly, to identify at species level the plant entities mentioned by Paucke as “azafrán”, “cardo”, and “cardo hortense”; and finally, to discuss ethnobotanical implications.
M&M: The study area included Argentina from the southern Pampean region to the Chacoan region. Bibliography, historical evidences of the 18th Century from the study area, herbarium materials and their morphology were analyzed, and field trips were made.
Results: Entities “azafrán alazor”, “azafrán de Indias” or “azafrán paracuario” by Paucke were identified as Carthamus tinctorius (“safflower”, Compositae), and “cardo” and “cardo hortense” as Cynara cardunculus (Compositae), associated with varieties sylvestris (“thistle”) and scolymus (“artichoke”), respectively. “Cardo santo” named by Pedro de Montenegro was associated to Argemone subfusiformis (Papaveraceae). Twelves new medicinal and food uses of the aboriginal Moqoit from the Chaco of Argentina were recorded.
Conclusions: Identified “thistles”, native and introduced, were used for medicinal and nutritional purposes during the colonial period, and incorporated at aboriginal missions by Jesuit priests. Carthamus tinctorius and Cynara cardunculus may have been introduced in order to be used in orchards and later on have escaped of the cultivation areas.

Introducción y objetivos: Actualmente numerosas especies, nativas y exóticas, llamadas “cardos” están ampliamente distribuidas en Argentina. Durante el siglo XVIII varias publicaciones jesuíticas mencionaron “cardos” en este país, como el trabajo ilustrado de Florián Paucke. El objetivo principal del trabajo es recopilar, de las fuentes escritas del siglo XVIII, los registros de plantas denominadas como “cardos” o nombres similares; en segundo lugar, identificar a nivel de especie las entidades mencionadas por Paucke como “azafrán”, “cardo” y “cardo hortense”; y finalmente, discutir las implicancias etnobotánicas. M&M: El área de estudio incluyó Argentina desde el sur de la región Pampeana a la región Chaqueña. Se analizó bibliografía, evidencias históricas de los siglos XVIII del área de estudio, materiales de herbario y su morfología, y se efectuaron viajes de campo. Resultados: Las entidades “azafrán alazor”, “azafrán de Indias” o “azafrán paracuario” de Paucke se identificaron como Carthamus tinctorius (“cártamo”, Compositae), y “cardo” y “cardo hortense” como Cynara cardunculus (Compositae), asociadas a las variedades sylvestris (“cardo de Castilla”) y scolymus (“alcaucil”) respectivamente. El “cardo santo” nombrado por Pedro de Montenegro se asoció a Argemone subfusiformis (Papaveraceae). Se registraron 12 nuevos usos medicinales y alimenticios de los aborígenes moqoit del Chaco de Argentina. Conclusiones: Los “cardos” identificados, nativos e introducidos, fueron utilizados con fines medicinales y alimenticios durante el período colonial, e incorporados en las reducciones aborígenes por misioneros jesuitas. Carthamus tinctorius y Cynara cardunculus posiblemente hayan sido introducidos para ser utilizadas en huertos y posteriormente hayan escapado de las áreas de cultivo. Introdução e objetivos: Atualmente, numerosas espécies, nativas e exóticas, chamadas "cardos", são amplamente distribuídas na Argentina. Durante o século XVIII, várias publicações jesuítas mencionaram "cardos" neste país, como a obra ilustrada de Florián Paucke. O principal objetivo do trabalho é coletar, a partir das fontes escritas do século XVIII, os registros de plantas chamadas "cardos" ou nomes semelhantes; em segundo lugar, identificar em nível de espécie as entidades mencionadas por Paucke como "açafrão", "cardo" e "cardo de jardim"; e, finalmente, discuta as implicações etnobotânicas.M&M: A área de estudo incluiu a Argentina da região sul de Pampeana até a região de Chaqueña. A bibliografia, evidências históricas dos séculos XVIII da área de estudo, os materiais de herbário e sua morfologia foram analisados e foram realizadas visitas de estudo.Resultados: As entidades “açafrão açafrão”, “açafrão das Índias” ou “açafrão paracuariano” de Paucke foram identificadas como Carthamus tinctorius (“açafrão”, Compositae), e “cardo” e “cardo de jardim” como Cynara cardunculus (Compositae), associados às variedades sylvestris ("cardo de Castilla") e scolymus ("alcaucil"), respectivamente. O "cardo sagrado", nomeado por Pedro de Montenegro, foi associado à Argemone subfusiformis (Papaveraceae). Foram registrados doze novos usos medicinais e nutricionais dos aborígines Moqoit do Chaco da Argentina.Conclusões: Os "cardos" nativos identificados e introduzidos foram utilizados para fins medicinais e nutricionais durante o período colonial e incorporados às reduções aborígines pelos missionários jesuítas. Carthamus tinctorius e Cynara cardunculus podem ter sido introduzidos para uso em pomares e subsequentemente escaparam de áreas de cultivo.
