Abstract

Ethnobotanical knowledge among native peoples of the Amazon is rapidely disappearing with the intrusion of civilization. We here present notes taken from information recorded by collectors in the hope that these data may direct the attention of investigators to species which have not been studied from the viewpoint of their biodynamic uses.
