Abstract

A study on the diversity of medicinal homeopathic plant species in the Navi Mumbai region were carried out from 2020 to 2021. Throughout the study region, a detailed floristic survey of angiosperm species and collections was undertaken. Plant species'’ botanical names, as well as local names, habits, families, parts used, and homeopathic applications, are arranged alphabetically. The exploration and field survey resulted in the documentation of 50 plant species belonging to 29 families and 45 genera distributed in the different localities of Navi Mumbai. The tree and herb homeopathic species reported dominance during the study. Each had 15 species, followed by shrubs (11 species), climbers (05 species), bulbs (03 species), and twiners (01 species).
