Abstract

Trujillo, one of the main provinces of Peru, is home to a multicultural population, coming from the Coast, Sierra and Selva; of different ideologies, cultures, and ancestral knowledge about the correct use of medicinal flora. In this sense and in an effort to rescue this ancestral knowledge, the ethnobotanical study of the medicinal flora of the province of Trujillo was carried out. For which 96 semi-structured interviews wereapplied, using the "snowball" technique; followed by the collection, taxonomic determination and calculation of ethnobotanical indices: Use Value Index (IVU) and Informant Consensus Factor Index (FCI). It is concluded that the inhabitants of Trujillo makeuse of 102 species of medicinal flora, distributed in 95 genera and 46 families for the treatment and/or cure of 62 diseases. Of the total species, 24 turned out to be the most important (according to their IVU) for the cure of diseases of the Trujillo population.

秘鲁特鲁希略省药用植物群的人种植物学研究

特鲁希略省是秘鲁的主要省份之一，这里生活着来自沿海、山区和塞尔瓦的多元文化人口，他们有着不同的意识形态、文化和关于正确使用药用植物的祖传知识。从这个意义上说，为了拯救这些祖传知识，我们对特鲁希略省的药用植物群进行了人种植物学研究。为此，采用 "滚雪球 "技术进行了 96 次半结构式访谈；随后进行了民族植物学指数的收集、分类确定和计算：使用价值指数（IVU）和信息提供者共识因子指数（FCI）。得出的结论是，特鲁希略居民利用分布在 95 属 46 科中的 102 种药用植物来治疗和/或治愈 62 种疾病。在所有物种中，有 24 个物种对特鲁希略居民的疾病治疗最为重要（根据其 IVU）。
