The present investigation was developed to evaluate the ethnopharmacological activities of some members of family Moraceae. The selected plants were Ficus bengalensis, Ficus religiosa, Ficus glomerata, Morus indica and Morus laevigata. Ethnopharmacological activities were carried out by the preparation of aqueous and methanolic extracts of different parts of these selected plants. For ethnopharmacological activities, the dried leaves of Ficus bengalensis, Ficus religiosa and Ficus glomerata, dried fruits and leaves of Morus indica and Morus laevigata were extracted with water and methanol for anti-emetic activity anthelmintic, antiallergy and antibacterial activities.
