I guess the abbreviation at the end of the Hebrew name is something like a superscript “9” and should stand for -us: “landufius”?.
The Tartar “columbanos” / “columbanes” sounds very Latin to me: I think it either is not Tartar or was badly corrupted. Searcher's suggestion of Vervain is consistent with this name (taken as a Latin name) but not with the other data. 
Anyway, "Columbanos", "columbinus", "columbarius", etc. must relatate to doves (dove's plant). There are only a few names similar to Columbanos: Columbaria herba (Scabiosa), herba Columbaris (Vervein), You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.(Geranium) and You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (Menispermum palmatum, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.). It is interesting that the last one is mostly fits the data, although it is difficult to say it about the image. There are no early official sources (encyclopedies, etc.) about this item, unfortunately, but, possibly, it was known much earlier under the name Colombo, etc.???
