Abstract Abstract Throughout the world, several hepatogenous photosensitisation diseases of ruminants are characterised by the presence of birefringent crystals in and about the bile ducts. These include photosensitisations caused by Tribulus terrestris (1) Coetzer, JAW, Kellerman, TS, Sadler, W and Bath, GF. 1983. Photosensitivity in South Africa. V.
