Traditional medicinal knowledge about Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner, 1805) feeding on Crotalaria sp. in Chhattisgarh, India. Updated Version.

Pankaj Oudhia

Introduction

Entomophagy and Entomotherapy are well known in Asia since generations. Unfortunately not much work has been done to document valuable Traditional Medicinal Knowledge about Insects. Pankaj Oudhia is documenting this knowledge since year 1990. The present note “Traditional medicinal knowledge about Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner, 1805) feeding on Crotalaria sp. in Chhattisgarh, India.”  is updated version of his previously published online research document available through pankajoudhia.com.

Keywords: Entomophagy; Entomotherapy; Medicinal Insects; Ayurveda; Chhattisgarh;

Many species of Crotalaria grows as wild plants in Chhattisgarh. Crotalaria juncea, commonly known as Sun or San, is under cultivation. Gram caterpillar Helicoverpa armigera is well known polyphagus insect that feeds on many agricultural crops as well as woody species. I have mentioned in previous articles that the natives and traditional healers have in depth traditional medicinal knowledge about different uses of Helicoverpa armigera. They use the Helicoverpa caterpillars feeding on different plants for different purposes. According to them, the host plants play an important role in making the caterpillars medicinally rich. During the Ethno-entomological surveys conducted in different parts of Chhattisgarh, I have observed that the traditional healers of Kanker region use Helicoverpa caterpillar feeding on Crotalaria burhia and C. juncea plants as medicine. The full fed caterpillars are used both internally as well as externally, in treatment of many common troubles. Before using the caterpillars to prepare the medicine, the traditional healers dip it in aqueous extract of Neem leaves for ten minutes and after this time period, dry it in shade. After drying the caterpillars are converted into powder. This powder is kept for future use. The traditional healers add this powder in popular herbal combinations used as blood purifier. According to the healers, the caterpillar powder plays very important role in enriching the herbal combinations. In treatment of pain, the healers use the powder in combination with Kanhar (Black) soil. The powder is mixed with soil and with the help of water an aqueous paste is prepared. This paste is applied externally on painful parts. I have seen its practical uses in treatment of Migraine (Headache). The healers suggest the patients having skin related troubles to smear the aqueous paste all over the body before bath and wash it after drying. The paste is having the capacity to absorb the extra heat from the body. The healers are not aware of its other uses. When I asked the traditional healers of other regions specialized in use of medicinal insects about these uses, they showed ignorance to it but assured me to try it in near future. Later when the healers tried the caterpillars, they found it equally effective, as claimed by the healers of Kanker region.

The medicinal uses of Helicoverpa feeding on Crotalaria species have yet not been reported in reference literatures. I am feeling proud to document this information.

New Comments added on May, 2014

Through recent surveys I have collected information about over 7500 Formulations in which Helicoverpa collected from Crotalaria is used as important ingredient. Most of these Formulations are used for treatment of bone diseases. The Traditional Healers add it as secret ingredient and rarely share information about it. In Acampe, Aerides and Vanda based Formulations Helicoverpa is added as secondary ingredient. The Healers prepare these Formulations during winter season and use it round the year. In Ficus, Shorea and Xanthium based Formulations it is added as tertiary ingredient. In Arundina and Bulbophyllum based Formulations used for treatment on early stages of bone cancer it is added as quaternary ingredient. In Calanthe and Chrysoglossum based Formulations it is added as senary ingredient with Medicinal Sedges mainly Cyperus. In Coelogyne and Cottonia based Formulations of Bastar it is added as quinary ingredient with 7 wild mushroom species. These Formulations are used when all available cancer remedies fail to give the desirable effects. The Healers claim that without Helicoverpa these Formulations are useless. In Crepidium and Cymbidium based Formulations it is added as septenary and octonary ingredient. These Formulations are popular among the Traditional Healers of Odisha and Jharkhand. In Didymoplexis and Dendrobium based Formulations it is added as nonary ingredient with medicinal mite Trombidium.
