| Abstract | ||||
| Lantana montevidensis (Spreng.) Briq. is a member of family Verbenaceae, that includes about 98 genera and more than 2600 species which are predominantly tropical or subtropical plants. The leaf infusions of the plant are used in folk medicine to treat fever, influenza, asthma, bronchitis, and many other diseases. Biological studies showed that the plant has antimicrobial and antiproliferative activities. No detailed information could be traced concerning the macroand micromorphology of the plant. This motivated the authors to carry out this study to identify the drug in both entire and powdered form. | ||||
