Remarks Listed in the Japanese standards for non-pharmacopoeial crude drugs 2018.
Old Jupi is called Chen-jupij or Chenpi for short. In Japanese market, Chinese Chenpi is called Jupi, which may be distinguished from Japanese Chenpi.
The Japanese standards for non-Pharmacopoeial crude drugs (1989) defines Jupi as the ripe peel of C. tachibana Tanaka or allied species (ex. Tachibana Pericarpium), but its 2018 edition difines as described above.
