The purpose of this study, identification of
medicinal plants, which spread in Central Anatolia forests, can be regarded as
non-wood forest products and draw attention on the situation of endemic taxa.
Literature study was made to determine the medicinal plants can be regarded as
non-wood forest products, by using The Flora of Turkey, published articles,
thesis and books about Eskişehir flora. It was found that there are 81 genera
and 121 taxa (110 Dicotyledonous, 11 Monocotyledonous) belonging to 31 families
under natural forest distribution in Eskisehir. 68 of these taxa were endemics
and elements of different phytogeographic regions. 59 of these 121 plant taxa
have medical importance. It is important to evaluate these taxa economically.
Another important issue is that some of the endemic taxa have medical
importance at the same time.
