Out of these four species, <i>X. rumphii</i> appears to be less common in distribution, abundance, as well as in research carried out on it. As an example, about 70 chemical constituents have been isolated from the first two species, but such records on <i>X. rumphii</i> are scanty.In Sri Lanka, only two species of <i>Xylocarpus</i>, i.e. <i>X. granatum</i> and <i>X. moluccencis</i> were reported originally, but in low abundances. As previously reported <i>X. rumphii</i> was restricted to few individuals at only one location in the country. A recent exploration, however, encountered the same species in more places, however again in very low abundances. As its distribution is restricted to the sea-shore and the coastal belt of the country is under high anthropogenic pressure, <i>X. rumphii</i> becomes an endangered species in Sri Lanka.In contrast, it is reported that the ethnobotanical use of <i>X. rumphii</i> in Sri Lanka is outstanding. A survey carried out on ethnobotanical uses of the species revealed that, parts of this plant have been used as a major constituent in preparations of various ayurvedic drugs. Since centuries, those preparations have been used to treat at least 12 ailments in humans. It is also reported that this plant is used in traditional medicine to treat fish poisoning as well as alcohol poisoning. These uses are still in practice, but now under threat due to the scarcity of the species.In contrast to the use of <i>X. granatum</i> as a medicinal plant in many other countries, it is not used as such in Sri Lanka, even though its higher abundance as compared to that of <i>X. rumphii</i>. This might imply a higher potential for bioactive compounds to be found in <i>X. rumphii</i>. All these reports emphasize the urgent need for the conservation of this species","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AM","StandardTitle":"Ethanobotany of <i>Xylocarpus rumphii</i>, an endangered tree species in Sri Lanka","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:17.368041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2009,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2012-08-01","DateCreate":"2012-08-01","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":null,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":217114,"PubliDate":2009,"Pagination":"91","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":null,"Issue":null,"BRefMon":217102,"BRefMonRR":"<b>Dahdouh-Guebas, F. <i>et al.</i></b> (2009).
