Original language description
An ethnobotanical study was performed to collect information on the use of medicinal plants in Papantla, Veracruz, Mexico. This study identified the medicinal plants currently used, registered traditional knowledge, and documented the patterns of ailments treated in the indigenous communities of Totonacas. A total of 101 medicinal plants belonging to 51 families were described by 85 local informants. Asteraceae was the family with the highest number of plant species identified by these informants.
