dc.description.abstract	This review presents the current known phytochemical constituents of the genus Vepris. The genus is a rich source of alkaloids and limonoids most of which possess the 3, 4-methylenedioxy moieties. They are frequently used as antimalarial in African traditional medicine. The genus Vepris produces a number of metabolites in high quantities whose biological activities including antiplasmodial and antioxidant activities exhibited are discussed. The ethnopharmacology and toxicity of Vepris are also considered.	en_US
