The survey was conducted to record medicinally important plant species of ‘Nagwa’ block of district Sonebhadra. 99 ethnomedicinally important plant species belonging to 52 families were recorded with the help of tribal people and village medicine-men of the area. The study indicates that the area is floristically very rich and traditional medical system is well functioning in the area. The survey of the area shows that some of the important plants are declining because of overexploitation for economic values.
