| Abstract: | A survey of Kollimalai hill tracts of Tamil
Nadu, India was conducted to record the plants known in the tribal pockets and
mentioned in the present paper. Inhabitants utilize a number of medicinal plants
for the treatment of various ailments. The present study aims to draw the
attention of phytochemists and pharmacologists to the need of further critical
study. If the efficacy of each plant is scientifically established then these
plant drugs can be recommended to rural people who are within the reach of these
potential drugs. |
