I am thankful to Professor Dr. Ehab Fattoh, Dean of Faculty of Pharmacy, Egyptian Russian University, for the support and help along academic field. Alongside, I would thank Professor Dr. Omayma Dawood El-gindi, Professor of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Egyptian Russian University. Practically and personally, I couldn't imagine that I would have a better advisor and mentor for my life a godfather as Professor Dr. Fathy A. Ibrahim, Professor of Pharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics, Faculty of pharmacy, Egyptian Russian University. Gratifyingly, I would thank Assoc. Prof. Dr. Omayma Eldahshan, Acting Head of Pharmacognosy Department, Faculty of Pharmacy, Ain Shams University from my deepest heart for her gratitude. I owe a deep sense of gratitude and thank to Dr. Mohamed Ibrahim, Lecturer of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Helwan University. Acknowledgment The most thankful to the utmost respectful Dr. Mohamed Ashour, Assoc. Professor Doctor of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Ain Shams University. I thank my workmates at Egyptian Russian University otherwise, my sincere and thanks to you Dr. Mohamed Al-Shazley, Lecturer of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Ain Shams University, and Dr. Dina Al-Nagaar Lecturer of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Al-Azhar University. I am thankful to Madam Trease Labib, Taxonomist of the Orman Botanical Garden Herbarium, Giza, Egypt, for authenticating the identity of the plant. And it's my privilege to thank my household, the initial factor what's made me who I am today, and my close friend, Radwa Mouhammed. And I quote: "Both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.” Albert Einstein. Thank you, and I do respect all of you. May Allah bless upon you. Sherouk Hussein Contents Glossary Page no. I. Introduction 1 II. Taxonomy II.1. Taxonomical features of family Arecaceae 3 II.2.
