Abstract

AbstractSixty samples of materials implicated in traditional Sudanese medicine, representing 42 plant species, 31 genera and 22 families, were tested for molluscicidal activity. Tacca leontopetaloides (Taccaceae) was identified as a potent material which could be developed as a natural snail control agent. Several active fractions containing steroidal saponins were isolated.
