Among angiosperms, the Fabaceae (Leguminosae) family is well known for providing traditional or ethnic food and medicine. Many species in these genera have been identified as producing a variety of phytochemicals. The coastal regions of Purba Medinipur (West Bengal) and Balasore (Odisha) were studied to document the ethnomedicinally important plant species of Fabaceae. During the study we mainly focused on documentation of traditional knowledge of local people about uses of native medicinal fabaceous plants as ethnomedicines. A total of 50 species were recorded out of which 39 species belonged to subfamily Papilionoideae, 09 to subfamily Caesalpinioideae and 2 to subfamily Mimosoideae.
