Thirty four field trips were conducted throughout Bangladesh during 2000-2012 to collect fresh plant materials and each field trip consisted of 4-8 days. The areas visited for collection of plant samples include: Bagerhat (Bagerhat Sadar, Mollarhat), Bandarban (Bandarban Sadar, Lama), Barisal (Barisal Sadar), Chittagong (Mirsharai, Sitakundu), Comilla (Comilla Sadar, Daudkandi), Cox’s Bazar (Cox’s Bazar Sadar, Teknaf), Dhaka (Nawabganj, Savar), Dinajpur (Birampur, Dinajpur Sadar, Phulbari), Faridpur (Faridpur Sadar, Madhukhali), Gazipur (Gazipur Sadar, Kaliganj, Kapasia, Tongi), Gopalganj (Gopalganj Sadar, Kashiani, Kotalipara, Tungipara), Habiganj (Chunarughat, Madhabpur), Jessore (Jessore Sadar, Jhikargacha, Keshobpur, Manirampur, Sharsha), Jhalokhathi (Jhalokathi Sadar, Rajapur), Jhenaidah (Jhenaidah Sadar, Kaliganj, Kotchandpur, Shailkupa), Khagrachari (Dighinala, Matiranga, Panchari), Khulna (Dighalia, Khulna Sadar, Phultala, Terokhada), Magura (Magura Sadar, Mohammadpur, Shalikha), Manikganj (Saturia, Singair), Moulvi Bazar (Barolekha, Kamalganj, Sreemangal), Munshiganj (Gazaria, Munshiganj Sadar), Mymensingh (Haluaghat, Muktagachha), Narail (Kalia, Lohagara, Narail Sadar), Narayanganj (Fatullah, Siddhirganj), Natore (Natore Sadar, Singra), Netrakona (Durgapur, Khaliajuri), Patuakhali (Kalapara, Patuakhali Sadar), Rajbari (Baliakandi, Pangsha, Rajbari Sadar), Rajshahi (Bagha, Bagmara, Godagari, Puthia), Rangamati (Kaptai, Rangamati Sadar), Sherpur (Jhenaigathi, Sherpur Sadar), Sunamganj (Jagannathpur, Sunamganj Sadar), Sylhet (Sylhet Sadar) and Tangail (Madhupur). Collection of fresh materials was made from local markets, village areas and forest lands. Prior to collection, assistance from local informants was taken regarding the use of plants as leafy vegetables. Local vegetable markets were also surveyed to record marketable items. The collected samples were processed following the standard herbarium technique (Hyland, 1972). Some samples were also kept in liquid preservative. The collected specimens were critically studied and identified in the Dhaka University Salar Khan Herbarium (DUSH) by matching with the identified specimens housed at DUSH and DACB (Bangladesh National Herbarium), and with the help of standard literatures (Hooker, 1872-1897; Prain, 1903; Khan, 1972-1987; Dassanayake and Fosberg, 1980-1985; Khan and Halim, 1987; Khan and Rahman, 1989-2002). Nomenclatures have been updated using Siddiqui et al. (2007-2008), Ahmed et al. (2008-2009), and Rashid and Rahman (2011, 2012). The angiosperm families followed that of Cronquist (1981), while pteridophyte families are arranged in an alphabetical order. Under each family the genera and species have been arranged alphabetically. Updated nomenclature, vernacular names (Eng. = English, Beng. = Bangla), habit, representative specimen (only one cited because of page constraint) and area of major consumption have been furnished under each taxon. All voucher specimens have been deposited at DUSH in the Department of Botany, University of Dhaka, Bangladesh.
