Terra NOCERIANA, Earth of Nocera, in the Materia Medica, a species of bole, remarkably heavy, of a grayish-white colour, of an insipid taste, and generally with some particles in it which grit between the teeth. It is much esteemed by the Italians as a remedy for venomous bites, and in fevers; but, excepting as an absorbent and astringent, no dependence is to be had on it.
