Neha Mishra The present study was carried out to document the diversity of Angiosperm taxa of Kota district of Rajasthan in India. It also highlights the various medicinal properties of plants found in this area. During the floristic survey a total of 133 species and intraspecific taxa of plants representing 99 genera in 46 families were recorded. The most speciose family found was Leguminoceae with 30 species, followed by Moraceae (7 spp.), Combretaceae and Rubiaceae (5 spp.), Euphobiaceae, Apocynaceae and Tiliaceae (4 spp.). Floristic composition shows presence of plants with evergreen tree, shrub and herbaceous habitat. Most of the species represents diverse medicinal importance and used to cure various diseases such as bronchitis, ulcer, diarrhea, dysentery, wound, eruptions, bone fracture, kidney stone and also for respiratory, digestive, urinary and skin disorders. The plants posses immunomodulatory, antidiabetic, anthelmintic, antiulcer, antitumour, antifungal, anti-trypanosomal, CNS depressant, hypoglycaemic, insecticidal and herbicidal activities etc. This work may expend the knowledge about the native vegetation and provide subsidies to assist future opportunities for documentation of the flora of Rajasthan.
