In the present study ethnomedicinal plant survey was carried out among Irular Tribes who settled in Javadhu hills, which is located in Southern Eastern Ghats of Tamil Nadu. About 30 species of ethnoherbal medicinal plants belonging to 13 families were reported in the present study. The survey indicates that many number of ethnomedicinal plants were traditionally used by the Irular tribes of Javadhu hill for the treatment of various diseases. Key words: Ethnomedicinal plants, Irulars, Javadhu hills. Introduction India is one of the leading countries in Asia in terms of ethnomedicinal traditional knowledge systems, relating to the use of medicinal plant species and also known to harbor a rich biological and cultural diversity of higher plant species of which 7500 are known medicinal plants (Kala, 2005). India is in rich ethnic diversity with indigenous knowledge that has resulted in many ethnobotanical studies. There are over 537 different native groups in India with extensive knowledge of ethnomedicinal plants (Jain, 1991). Qualitative and 31
2 quantitative field survey resulted in collection of many specific native plant species (Ignacimuthu et al., 1998). A study indicates that the local inhabitants depend on local medicinal plants for the treatment of many diseases (David and Sudarsanam, 2011). Irulars are tribal community living in different parts of India; one of their habitats is in the North Arcot district of Tamil Nadu which includes Kancheepurum, Thiruvallur, Thiruvannamalai, Vellore, Villupuram and Dhrumapuri districts. Their population in these regions is estimated to be at least 25,000 in number. Anthropological study states that Irulars belong to the Negrito or Negroid race, which is one of the six main ethnic groups that add to the racial mosaic of India. Negroids from Africa were the oldest people to have come to India. These people are now found in patches among the hill tribes of South India in the names of Irulars, Kodars, Paniyans and Kurumbas on the mainland. Unlike the survivors in the Andaman Islands who have retained their language, Irulars in Thiruvallur district have adopted the local regional languages, namely Tamil and Telugu. They are living as a long and trans generational interaction with nature. There are several reports on the documentation of ethnic knowledge for the utilization of ethnomedicinal plants for various aliments by Irulars tribes in Andhra Pradesh (Hemadri et al., 1987a & b; Prakasa Rao and Hara sriramulu, 1985; Seshagiri Rao and Hemadri, 1984; Venkanna, 1990). But this type of work in Tamil Nadu is very meager, so it is more important to explore the medicinal flora of Tamil Nadu state. Materials and Methods Javadhu hills is one of the natural bioreserves of Eastern Ghats, Tamil Nadu. This hill lies between and East longitude and and North Latitude with an area of 2405 square km. Javadhu hill ranges from the North to South attaining a maximum length of 64 kms and a width of 25 kms and spread within taluks of Pollur, Chengum, Thiruppatthur, Vaniyampadi, Tiruvannamalai and Vellore. This is considered to be the highest mountain in Vellore district, which covers the eastern part of Tiruppatthur Taluk. The elevation of the Javadhu hills is 2500 feet above mean sea level with peaks rising up to 4200 feet. Frequent field trips were conducted for ethnobotanical studies from August 2011 to December Ethnobotanical datas were collected using questionnaires, interviews and discussion 32
3 among the Irular tribes settled in Javadhu hills. 25 members responded to the interview among them most of them were elderly people who had wide knowledge and hands on experience and practice on use of medicinal plants for treating various diseases. The collected plants were botanically identified using the Flora of Presidency of Madras (Gamble, 1935) and the Flora of Tamil Nadu Carnatic (Mathew, 1983). Some plants were identified in the field itself along with some of the members of the local community who already were using those plants for traditional medicine. Herbarium specimens were deposited in the Department of Botany, Arignar Anna Govt. Arts College, Villupuram Results and Discussion The ethnomedicinal plants survey of Javadhu hills of Tamil Nadu showed that many number of medicinal plants were traditionally used by the Irular Tribes for the treatment of various diseases. In this study, 30 plant species belongs to 13 families were reported and arranged alphabetically, with tamil name and family name (followed APG III-classification (2009) for family names) and parts used were given in Table 1. Ethnomedicinal practitioners of Irular tribes are using these plants to cure skin diseases, stomach problems, diabetes, urinary infections, fever, cough, cold, snakebites, earache, killing of worms, hair growth, headache, indigestion, itches, swellings, wounds and dental problems. Most of indegenious people interviewed were traditional healers who were familiar with the medicinal plants and they use these plants for treating common ailments like cold, cough, fever, digestive problems, headache, skin infection, like other rural and tribal communities (Lev and Amar, 2000; Katewa et al., 2004; Ghorbani, 2005; Teklehaymanot et al., 2006; Pattanaik et al., 2008).
