Abstract
This paper reports 35 medicinal plants belonging to 25 families used in the treatment of malaria by the people
inhabiting the forests located near to Bhubaneswar, the capital city of Orissa, a south-eastern state in India.
The methods adopted for the preparation of plant parts are discussed along with their family and local name(s).
The majority of the herbal preparations were made in the form of juices or by using water as the medium in
the form of decoctions or infusions. Various plant parts, such as leaves, flowers, fruits, barks, stems, roots, and
in some cases the whole plants are used to prepare these remedies each of which contains a single species.
