“…The comparison of the folk phytotherapeutical data collected and the ethnomedicinal texts Moyse, 1967, 1971;Schauenberg and Paris, 1977;Anzalone, 1986;Gastaldo, 1987), particularly the Italian ethnobotanical literature (Cappelletti, 1979;Bellomaria and Della Mora, 1985;Atzei et al, 1994;Uncini Manganelli and Tomei, 1999a,b;Pieroni, 2000;Ballero et al, 2001;Leporatti and Corradi, 2001;Viegi et al, 2003; and references therein) shows that uses reported here have not been previously mentioned or possibly described for other Italian regions.…”

Treatment of Organic Livestock with Medicinal Plants: A Systematic Review of European Ethnoveterinary Research

et al. 2014

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: The EC Regulation for Organic Farming states that organic livestock should be treated preferably with phytotherapeutic products. In spite of the high importance of organic livestock in Europe, primarily ruminants, today almost no phytotherapeutic product is registered for livestock. Also, information regarding veterinary phytotherapy is rare. The aim of this paper is to find approaches to cope with health problems of organic ruminants in Europe on the basis of findings from the European ethnoveterinary medicine (EuEVM). Methods: A systematic review of ethno-biomedicinal papers was conducted with the aid of the Scopus database, and 75 papers, from European countries were analyzed regarding ethnoveterinary information. Results: A total of 590 plant species referring to 102 different plant families are reported to be used for animal treatment, with Asteraceae, Fabaceae and Lamiaceae being the most important families. The traditional use of some plant species (e.g. mallow, chamomile, wormwood) corresponds with findings from recent scientific literature. The large number of less studied plant species, such as white lupin as an antiparasitic herb, and Helleborus spp. as potential immunostimulatory agent, opens an interesting field for future research. Conclusions: In general, EuEVM provides interesting treatment approaches for gastrointestinal and dermatological disorders as well as parasitosis. Findings regarding disorders of female genital or respiratory tract are less consistent. Nevertheless, EuEVM offers a solid basis for stimulating research in veterinary phytotherapy in Europe with a perspective to solve animal health problems in organic or even nonorganic ruminant production.

Traditional Plant Use in the Phlegraean Fields Regional Park (Campania, Southern Italy)

2009

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Phlegraean Fields Regional Park in southern Italy has an especially long history of human exploitation. For our ethnobotanical studies we interviewed 39 people native to the area and recorded 962 use-reports. For each species, we provide scientific and vernacular names, plant parts used, and preparation and administration processes. In all, 69 species belonging to 35 families were classified. The species most frequently mentioned were Citrus limon, Chamomilla recutita, Malva sylvestris, Parietaria judaica, Ficus carica, Foeniculum vulgare and Laurus nobilis. The commonest plant use recorded is medicinal, followed by culinary and domestic; for 26% of the species inventoried, more than one use was recorded. The present study confirms the persistence of traditional plant use in regions of central and southern Italy.
