This book is an attempt in compiling all such available information based on the critical study of literature till date, and, on the interactions of the author with the indigenous people during his more than three decades of association with the forest and the people of the area. The necessity for such an attempt, for a specific region, rich both in MAP as well as the tribal, in whom the available knowledge has been concisely recorded, was keenly felt to provide guidance to the future researchers in objective ethnobotany (OE) as well as in indigenous drugs. This book is also intended for the forest officers, who faces numerous enquiries addressed to them by quoting names in local languages; and more often than not they are faced with a dialemna as to how to locate this plant even though the particular plant may be in his vicinity. Hence, names in different languages have been indexed for both the researchers in OE and for the forest officers, as well as for the amateurs. ISBN - 9798172334771
