苦聪族是拉祜族的一个分支，是生活在中国云南省金平县的一个土著民族，其定居乡村生活的历史很短（约40年）。根据民族植物学调查资料，整理出拉祜族医者常用的药用植物118种，隶属于57科98属。药用植物的科属多样性与拉祜族的传统生活方式密切相关。疾病越常见，相关的医学知识就越丰富。药用植物中最常用的部位是叶（35.22%）和根（32.08%）。与拉祜族传统生活方式有关的环境的消失威胁到他们传统医药知识的存在，这与许多其他传统医药面临的威胁相似。传统医药学的研究领域应包括传统医药的采集与编目。
The Kucong, a branch of Lahu and an indigenous ethnic group living in Jinping County, Yunnan Province, China, have a very short history of settled village life (about 40 years). According to the data of ethnobotanical investigation, 118 species of medicinal plants belonging to 57 families and 98 genera used by Lahu healers have been inventoried. The characteristics of medicinal plants coming from a great number of families and genera relate to the traditional life-style of the Lahu. The more common the diseases are, the more abundant the related medicinal knowledge is. The most frequently used parts of medicinal plants are the leaf (35.22%) and root (32.08%). The disappearance of environments related to the traditional life-style of the Lahu threatens the existence of their traditional medicinal knowledge, similar to threats facing many other traditional medicines. Collection and inventory should be essential research fields in studies of traditional medicine.
