The Anthelminthic activities of different leaf extracts of Madhuca longifolia were evaluated separately on adult Indian earthworm (Pheritima posthuma). It was found that methanolic extract and aqueous extract of M.longifolia showed anthelminthic activities at a concentration of 60 mg/ml of each. The reference standard was Albendazole (60 mg/ml).The methanolic extract of M.longifolia showed better result compared to aqueous extract.
