In this review, the relevance of the plant species belonging to the Pedicularis L. genus has been considered from different points of view. Particular emphasis was given to phytochemistry and ethnopharmacology, since several classes of natural compounds have been reported within this genus and many of its species are well known to be employed in the traditional medicines of many Asian countries. Some important conclusions on the chemotaxonomic and chemosystematic aspects of the genus have also been provided for the first time. Actually, this work represents the first total comprehensive review on this genus.

Abstract
In this review, the relevance of the plant species belonging to the Pedicularis L. genus has been considered from different points of view.

Some important conclusions on the chemotaxonomic and chemosystematic aspects of the genus have also been provided for the first time.
