摘要:The tremendous medicinal plant resources of Northeast India are utilized by different agencies as raw materials and/or for direct application. No proper assessment of the resources and no investigation on the extent of exploitation has been performed so far, especially in the high altitudes of Arunachal Pradesh viz., West Kameng and Tawang. That state is the richest in biodiversity, with high value medicinal and aromatic plants, as well as rare and endangered species.

The present study gives an account on some preliminary observations about the commercial medicinal plants from the higher altitudes of Arunachal Pradesh, some of which being of immense economic value
