✦ Synopsis

As a medical system of particular interest, because of its origins in indigenous Andean medicine and its later medieval Spanish, Arabic and African influences, the herbal traditional medicine of Venezuelan Andes has been studied. An ethnopharmacological survey, based in the local markets as places of meeting and synthesis of therapeutic vegetable resources from the different vegetation zones of Venezuelan Andes, tropical highlands, mountain rainforest and xerophytic lands is made. 71 plants are presented mentioning scientific and common local names, family, traditional medicinal use, plant organ(s) used, preparation and administration as a first report of this study.
