(AHn, K.) And اصحامّت الأَرْضُ The land became altered [for the worse] in its herbage, and its rain departed: (K:) or, as some say, the land became altered in the colour of its seed-produce, for the reaping: and in like manner, اصحامّ الحَبٌّ the grain became thus altered. (TA.) And اصحامّ الزَّرْعُ The seed-produce was smitten by cold: or began to dry up. (K.)

Of the colour termed صُحْمَةٌ: (K:) i. e. black inclining to yellowness: (S, K:) &c.: (K:) or, accord. to AA, intensely black: (TA:) fem. صَحْمَاءُ. (K.)
