A study on the native uses of ethnomedicinal species was carried out in the Lakhimpur-kheri district of Uttar Pradesh state in India with the major objective of identifying different medicinal plant species.Production and productivity of many wild- type plants have increase manifolds but the challenges of malnutrition and threat of climate change continues by the time. The ethnobotanical data were collected through questioners by interviewing local communities and Hakims. The medicinal practitioners were treating the common diseases like cough cold, snake bite, diabetes, wounds, fever, toothache and the antitumor activity. In total 21 species belonging to 18 Genera and 15 Families were recorded which were used by inhabitants of the area.
