Abstract
The ecological and ethnobotanical surveys in different localities of Himachal Pradesh revealed that Herniaria incana Lam., is a good soil binder, and confined to the Pangi subdivision of Chamba District in Himachal Pradesh. Phyto-sociological analysis of this herb in the natural habitat suggests that it forms a single strand rather than associated with other herbs. It has also been observed that the plant is not a palatable herb to livestock as it is found intact in grazed area. The ethnic knowledge reported here on H. incana Lam. is hitherto unknown.
