Abstract
The egregious, idyllic, non-xenophobic Pinswari community is an isolated community dwelling in the remote hills of the Tehri District of Uttar Pradesh, India. They are the descendants of the Jaads (Huniyas) and are still isolated in the sense that normally do not have marital' relation with the Garhwalis. Based on ethnobotanical survey (1983-1988) 108 plant species which are used as medicines, Ebre yielders, in arts and crafts, and in agricultural implements are reported. Correct botanical name, family, local name, collector's name (abbreviated as AKB) and number and detailed uses as given by local informants are given under each entry.
