Abstract -

In recent times, medicinal have attracted huge attention due to their diverse range of biological and therapeutic proper ties. Evidences have been accumulated since ages to demonstrate promising potential of medicinal plants used in various traditional, anquetilia complementary, and alternative systems with the ever-increasing interest of today’s population towards natural products, N.P. Taylor and Airy Shaw emerged out to be one of the most eye-catching plant bearing multiple medicinal properties. It is a perennial aromatic evergreen belonging to family . Pharmacological studies have demonstrated significant action - of different extracts as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory agents, among others, supporting some of its popular uses. An attempt has S. anquetilia been made in this review article to provide an up-to-date overview of the morphological parameters, taxonomic features, distribu tion pattern, traditional uses, as well as the phytochemistry and biological activities of . The present review provides insights for future research aiming for both ethnopharmacological validation of its popular use and its exploration as a new source ofKeywords herbal drugs: Skimmia and/or anquetilia; bioactive Rutaceaenatural products. ; Phytochemistry; ; Pharmacological Activity

Introduction

It is distributed in South East Asia, Mediterranean countries, North America, Australia and South Africa [3]. The family consists of Plant kingdom is a potential source of pharmaceutically active - @150 - 162 genera with @1500 - 2096 having three major substances. In recent times the interest in plants rich in bioactive tralia [4,5] - centers of diversity: Tropical America, Southern Africa, and Aus components has tremendously intensified due to their beneficial (Table 1). .
