Abstract
The present study was conducted in our study area Challakere taluk, Karnataka; rural pockets are covered in different sessions and tribal information on medicinal plants and their use. The tribal health healers of Challakere taluk, Chitradurga, Karnataka, are poor in education. A total of 23 medicinal plant species belonging to 15 families were recorded; Fabaceae has the highest number of species followed by Malvaceae, Euphorbiacae, Moraceae, and Lamiaceae, Capparidaceae. The Capparis zeylanica is the most effective plant used in Challakere taluk. The information by tribal health healers is very scientific, so many research articles and journals publish the same plants.
