Diplocyclos palmatus (L.) C. Jeffrey commonly known as shivalingi is a lesser heard and perennial climber having diversified medicinal values. It is belongs to Cucurbitaceae family. This plants especially the leaves and seeds have immense folklore usage even today. The leaves of the plant are generally applied as an anti-inflammatory paste.
