The present research spots light on diversity and therapeutic potentiality of flowers collected from Surajpur district Chhattisgarh, India. Recently, the traditional knowledge as therapeutics is gaining increased attention across globe. curative based local healers village dwellers unturned enigma enormous efficacy against several alarming diseases. different colours same flower six adjoining tehsils also divulge that possesses diverse colour morphology in areas which an indicator rich floral this region. Despite immense flora, region relatively untouched with special reference to its ethno-medicinal studies. Keeping above facts into consideration, attempt was made focus 68 covers twenty nine families cure seventy eight dreadful documentation accord a clear insight vast biological pharmacological all under investigation. Although, work initial step towards potential having tremendous healing ability natural, cost effective without any side effects. However, time ahead vigorous efforts will be envisaged extract active compound elucidate complete structure bioactives using spectral analysis. study lay strong foundation floriculture definitely pave path for natural medicine curatives years ahead.

Keystone components in green urban spaces can make a big difference supporting either impoverished or rich animal communities. Trees that produce thousands of flowers at densities higher than herbs and much more nectar the latter be such keystone structures. However, there is lack specific information on trees, both native alien, their flower visitors urban/suburban contexts, which blurs conservation role species perform. In 2019 2020, we thoroughly recorded to silk-floss tree suburban Guadalajara, Mexico. To our knowledge, this first comprehensive inventory visitors. We documented 79 species/morphospecies insects; eight birds, one mammals visiting flowers. All, except two, are region; three endemic/quasi-endemic Besides direct indirect floral resources, offered perches, resting/hiding cover, nesting substrate, seed fibres used by several feeding substrate for gleaning insectivorous birds. Four listings: monarch butterfly (endangered), pink-spotted swallowtail (vulnerable), sparkling-tailed hummingbird (threatened), lesser long-nosed bat (near-threatened). Our data supports small patches enhance quality spaces, rather geographic origin, output drives visitation. Alien trees pollination enhancement ‘devices’ imperilled networks. Silk-floss potential option conservation-oriented greening, as well contribute enhancing human enjoyment nature, provide opportunities public outreach.
