The indigenous people were found to be rich in ethnoecological knowledge regarding environment and plant resources. The locals catagorised six types of ecological land patterns such as Nakri (forest land), Penhri or pangri or Thakri or dakri (land pattern), Sim (marshy place or wetland), Lung (agricultural land) and Khangri (Snowy land). The people also had the knowledge of plants in population level and species level and had their own way of classifying them on the basis of different criteria like presence or absence of flower, habit, habitat, morphology, etc. x Link for e-copy: http://lib.frtc.gov.np/elibrary/pages/view.php?ref=155&k=

Title : Utilization of plant resources in Dang district, West Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: S. R. Sigdel, Author ; ROKAYA, MAAN B., Author Publication Date: 2011 Article on page: 45-54 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Dang district, ethnobotany medicinal plants vulnerability test Abstract: This paper aims to highlight the uses of forest resources in Purandhara, Panchakule and Goltakuri
Village Development Committees (VDCs) of Dang district, western Nepal. The ethnobotanical data was
collected through Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) that involved discussion with local people
and key informants, through semi-structured questions and informal conversations. Vulnerability of
plants used in the study area was assessed by adapting the Rapid Vulnerability Approach (RVA).
Altogether 85 plant species belonging to 79 genera and 56 families were recorded in the study
areas. Twelve plant species were found to be used for various purposes other than medicinal. They
were used as food, fodder, in construction, in religious purposes and even in yielding dyes.
Seventy three plant species were found to be medicinal in properties for treating
144 different ailments. Remedies for 27 ailments were reported as new uses. The most common way of
admission of medicine was oral (76.71 %) followed by external or topical (35.6 %) and nasal (1.27
%). The RVA test showed Dalbergia sissoo (with 15 scores) and Terminalia alata (with 14 scores) as
most vulnerable ones.Link for e-copy: http://lib.frtc.gov.np/elibrary/?r=6
