Ethnomedicinal and Conservation Status of Herbs in Tehsil Banda Daud Shah, District Karak, Pakistan

Abstract: The present study documents the ethnomedicinal and conservation status of 91 herbs belonging to 81 genera and 66 families in tehsil Banda Daud Shah during 2012-2013. The information about conservation and ethnobotanical was collected through questioners and personal interviews during fieldwork using the IUCN 2001, Red Data List Categories and Criteria. Among these 36 species were found to be rare, vulnerable (30 species), infrequent (13 species), endangered (8 species) and dominant (4 species). From the presen… Show more

“…In the present study, an effort has been made to investigate and analyse correlation of vegetative attributes of herbs and shrubs. Due to huge population increases and frighteningly increasing urbanization practices, existing reserve forests and grazing lands are overburdened with community rights making it impossible to reduce the grazing pressure [19,20,21,22,29]. Grazing practices are one of the important determinants of vegetation distribution patterns and having most obvious impact on the floral biodiversity of an area [22,23).…”

“…The authors [8,27,28], described that the resources of soil is limited and its physical and chemical properties are restricted mostly by humus and clay. Several research works dealing with different features of plant life from diverse parts of the state have been taken out form time to time [16,19,21,22,29]. The investigated area presents a limited number of animal and plant species.…”
