Abstract

Traditional use of wild plant species during certain festivals occasions by local communities was studied
in Sirsi taluk of Uttara Kannada district, Karnataka state. Such a use of plants or their parts appears for
indicating the change in climate and seasons and also for scheduling seasonal operations. In addition,
offering of plants and their parts to particular deity has greater effectiveness in conservation of species
from overexploitation by the community.
KEY WORD: Wild plant species, Traditional use, Festivals, Uttara Kannada district and Western Ghats.
