    		Hmmm, true but neither France nor S. Africa are pseudonyms of Catha edulis.

    		I believe it is the African country of Chad, the coat of arms has a lion and a goat.

    Catha edulis also known as kat, qat, qaat, quat, gat, jaad, chat, Chad, chaad, and miraa.

    		Surely that's a homophone rather than a pseudonym? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homophone (Baloo is peeved at being pipped at the post...)

    		no thats not a homophone, Chad doesnt sound anything like Catha edulis.

    		"Khat (Catha edulis, family Celastraceae; pronounced /ˈkɑːt/; Arabic: قات; Ge'ez ጫት č̣āt; Somali: qaat), also known as kat, qat, qaat, quat, gat, jaad, chat, chad, chaad and miraa"
    Chad is in there. That's a homophone. Baloo55th is a pseudonym for [no, I'm not telling you...], a regular on AFT.
