This review study concerned to survey traditional use and scientific reports for four Dalbergia species namely: Dalbergia sisso, Dalbergia melanoxylon, Dalbergia odorifera and Dalbergia lactea vatke. Genus Dalbergia (Fabaceae or Leguminosae) is an important plant in traditional use. For example, in different part of the world these plants have been used traditionally for the treatment of blood diseases, syphilis, stomach problems, dysentery, nose disorders, ulcers, skin diseases, abdominal pains and anthelmintic. Phytochemical studies on different parts of these plants have indicated the presences of varieties secondary metabolites except Dalbergia lactea vatke. The widely reported are flavonoids, Cinnamyl flavan, terpenoids, and benzofuran among other things. On the other hand the bioassay studies on crude extracts and pure isolates have shown significant anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, anti-diabetic and anti-analgesic activities. However there is no literature survey performed on Dalbergia lactea vatke.
