摘要

尽管药用植物对克罗斯河州居民的健康维护具有很高的价值,特别是在治疗“最重要的本土疾病”方面,但主要的制约因素是草药的可用性和传统医学知识的不确定性,这些知识仍在通过口口相传。为了更好地依赖植物物种作为药物,本研究试图识别和推断用于治疗的物种的种群和分布,并记录它们。数据是通过实地调查和口头访谈收集的。调查小组由分类学家、调查助理、五名传统草药医生和作者组成。已鉴定的药用植物物种的状况和地理分布令人震惊,59%的药用植物分布在15个采样点中的3个。原因包括过度滥用治疗性植物物种、栖息地破坏和缺乏对群众的适当保护教育。建议社区建立治疗性植物农场,在农田中进行富集种植,并使用可持续的收割方法。

Survey of Medicinal Plants Used in the Treatment of “Ailments of Utmost Native Importance” in Cross River State, Nigeria
Regardless of the high value of medicinal plants to residents of Cross River State in health maintenance especially for the treatment of “ailments of utmost native importance”, the major constraint is the uncertainty of the availability of the herbs and knowledge of traditional medicine still being passed by word of mouth. For better reliance on the plant species as medicine, this research seeks to identify and infer on the population and distribution of the species used in their treatment and documents them. Data were collected using field work and oral interviews. The survey team comprised of Taxonomists, survey assistants, five trado-medical herbal practitioners and the Authors. The status and geographical distribution of the identified medicinal plant species was appalling, 59 percent of the medicinal plant species were distributed in 3 out of 15 sampled plots. Causal factors included over misuse of therapeutic plant species, habitats destruction and absence of proper conservation education of the masses. Recommendations are that Communities should set up therapeutic plants farms, enrichment planting be made in agricultural fields and sustainable harvesting methods used.
