| Abstract | The Panay Bukidnon is a group of indigenous peoples living in the interior highlands of Panay Island, in Western Visayas, Philippines. Little is known about their ethnopharmacological knowledge due to limited written records and no recent research has been conducted on the medicinal plants they used in ethnomedicine. This study aims to document the medicinal plants used by the indigenous Panay Bukidnon in Lambunao, Iloilo, Panay Island. A total of 131 medicinal plant species distributed in 121 genera and 57 families were used to address 91 diseases in 16 different use or disease categories. The family Fabaceae was best represented with 13 species, followed by Lamiaceae with nine species, and Poaceae with eight species. The leaf was the most frequently used plant part and decoction was the most preferred form of preparation. To evaluate the plant importance: use value (UV), relative frequency citation (RFC), informant consensus factor (ICF), and fidelity level (FL) were used. Curcuma longa L. had the highest UV (0.79), Artemisia vulgaris L. had the highest RFC value (0.57), and Annona muricata L. had the highest RI value (0.88). Diseases and symptoms or signs involving the respiratory system and injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes recorded the highest ICF value (0.80). Chromolaena odorata (L.) R.M.King & H.Rob. had the highest FL value (100%) used for cuts and wounds. The results of this study serve as a medium for preserving cultural heritage, ethnopharmacological bases for drug research and discovery, and preserving biological diversity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
