Abstract: A new field called ethnobotany looks into the traditional knowledge and ways of doing things that tribal and ethnic groups have used to protect and use biodiversity for health and nutrition. Because of this, a study of some important Angiosperms in Jaisinghnagar, Shahdol, was done from October 2023 to October 2024. The study was ethno-medico-botanical. There are many different groups that live in Jaisinghnagar. Some of them are Gond, Konda, Kol, Baiga, Bharia, so on. Different plants are used by these tribal people as medicines, to build and thatch huts, make singing instruments, and other things. Over the course of the study, 51 plant types from 17 families were gathered.
Wrightia tinctoria, Hygrophila spinosa, Gloriosa superba, Curculigo orchioides and
Costus speciosus are some of the plants in the study area that are used by local people as medicines.
