Agasyllis (Georgian დუცი dootsi) is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the celery family Apiaceae. The single species, A. latifolia. is endemic to the Caucasus, where it is valued both as a food and a folk medicine.
In Western Georgia - notably in Svanetia - A. latifolia is a popular edible and folk-medicinal herb used both in raw and cooked states to treat chronic abdominal pain and helminthiasis (infestation with parasitic worms), while the stem bark of the plant is used to treat asthma and coughs.
