An introduced, non-native, exotic, or alien species are those that grow in areas outside of their natural habitats. They get introduced deliberately or accidentally into new areas by anthropogenic activities or naturally through water, wind, etc. In non-native areas, these species invade rapidly due to the non-availability of natural enemies (prey) in a new habitat. Therefore, these fast-spreading exotic species are called invasive alien species. Verbesina encelioides, an invasive species of the family Asteraceae, is introduced from the United States and started to invade many arid or semi-arid regions. It is commonly known as 'Golden crownbeard'. The weed is used as a source of traditional medicines by the indigenous people. Some researchers investigated its toxic, allelopathic, antimicrobial and nematocidal properties. Its phytochemical analysis has shown the presence of flavonoids, terpenoids, alkaloids, carbohydrates, saponins, phenolic compounds, sterol, etc. The pharmacological studies showed this plant's antibacterial, antitumor, antifungal, antiprotozoal and hypoglycemic potential. Attempts have been made to cover various aspects related to V. encelioides in this review article. INTRODUCTION:Exotic species are also referred to as alien, non-native, non-indigenous, invasive or introduced species and are defined as species that usually occur outside their natural geographic areas 1 . These species start dominating and negatively affecting the native flora. Nowadays, the invasion of these exotic species has threatened the ecological diversity of natural ecosystems in different parts of the world.

The relationship between the plants and the population is well evaluated with the help of a survey and a review. Plants have been used both in the prevention and cure of various diseases of humans as well as in animals. The plant-based traditional medical systems continue to provide primary health care to more than three-quarters of the world's population. In India, the use of plants for medicinal treatment dates back to around 5000 years. It was officially recognized that 6500 plant species have medicinal value while over 6000 plants are estimated to be explored in traditional, folk and herbal medicine. An important prerequisite for proper utilization of raw materials of the country is the survey of its natural resources and the preparation of an inventory. Punjab is the state of India which has a great potentiality both from the economic and botanical points of view. In ancient Indian medical science of Ayurveda, Dravyaguna part has the detail information of various plants belonging to herbal practices. However, the information about herbs available in Punjab State with reference to Ayurveda is not available. Therefore, the online screening was done to get the information about herbs present in the flora of Punjab. Further, these available herbs were classified in different Varga (class) with special reference to Bhavprakasha Nighantu (Indian Materia Medica). The literary screening concluded that there are around 322 herb species recommended as available Ayurveda herbs in the flora of Punjab.
