The comprehend assess the pharmacognostic characteristics of an important ethnomedicinal plant, O. quadripartita Salz. ex Decne. The pharmacognostic evaluation was executein terms of taxonomic, macroscopic, microscopic, fluorescence analysis, and phytochemical analysis. The Osyaris members heartwood majorly used to make furniture and perfumes. The Osyris plant members are known for fragrance and volatile oil constituents. The microscopic features of stem bark were observed as cork, cortex, phloem fibers, phloem medullary rays, and scleridesin the transverse section (T.S.) and longitudinal section (L.S.). The microscopy of stem bark powder observed the presence of cortex cells, sieve tubes, calcium oxalate crystals, and lignified fibers. The initial screening of phytochemical constituents of stem bark crude plant extracts indicate the presence of carbohydrates, proteins, alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, saponins, tannins & phenolic in different polar and non-polar solvent systems such as petroleum ether, chloroform, acetone, methanol, and water. Many pharmacognostic characters observed during the study, it's help in the standardization of O. quadripartite.

Thesium viride Hill is a sub-shrub hemiparasite belongs to the family Santalaceae. Traditionally, the powdered whole plant is use for the treatment ulcer, jaundice and splenomegaly. This study is aimed at establishing some of the pharmacognostic features and physiochemical parameters of the powdered whole plant which can be utilize in the development of the plant monograph. The powdered whole plant material was examined by microscope and its physicochemical parameters such as; moisture content, extractive values and ash values were also determined. Microscopical examination of the powdered whole plant of T. viride identified the presence of straight walled polygonal epidermal cells, paracytic stomatal cells and unicellular covering trichomes, were found to be present. The powdered plant was found to have a moisture content (5.33%), total ash (10.33%), acid insoluble ash (3.17%), water soluble ash (4.93%), and ethanol extractive (4.87%) while water extractive (5.93%) values. Some of the pharmacognostic features and physicochemical parameters of powdered T. viride were identified and established.
