Abstract

Four endangered medicinal plants in Wadi Rum (S Jordan) were investigated because they are used heavily by the local inhabitants. The traditional, indigenous and conservational knowledge of utilisation of these medicinal plants and other plants are poorly recorded and is suffering from dramatic erosion. Further investigations regarding the value of these native medicinal plants and the documentation of its traditional and ethnopharmacological knowledge is an indispensable priority in WadiRumin particular and in Jordan in general.
