Description: Africa has a rich diversity of flora with an estimated 68,000 plant species of which about 35,000 are endemic to the continent. Madagascar has the highest rate of species endemism. About 82% of a total of 10,000 to 12,000 species are endemic to the country. The lowland rainforests of Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Gabon, Liberia and Nigeria; the montane forests of eastern Congo, Rwanda and western Uganda; the coastal areas of Kenya and Tanzania; and the arid lands of Ethiopia, Namibia and Somalia are known as the major centres of species endemism. Medicinal plants, and the drugs derived from them, are the most important and readily available source of health-care remedies to rural people in Africa.
