Abstract

The community may gradually gain access to traditional ethnomedicinal plant knowledge. Exploration, identification, and documentation of ethnobotanic resources are vital for restoring and preserving ethnomedicinal knowledge about plants, as well as for the species' protection for the greater good of humanity. The ethnomedicinal potential of plants was highlighted in this article, with a particular emphasis on North Bengal's hilly regions, which had hitherto received little attention.
