Abstract
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Indigenous medicinal systems have evolved after the shock of original
contact of traditional healers with the indigenous traditions because decreasing availability of indigenous
medicinal plants and assimilation of new species are increasingly occurred.
Materials and methods: In this study, we appraised the distribution and usage of indigenous and nonindigenous
botanicals and their habitats and their uses in indigenous medicines of farwest Nepal
following literature and herbarium specimens review, participatory field visits and ethnobotanical
surveys.
