ABSTRACT
The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the methanol extract of various parts of Lagerstroemia parviflora Roxb were determined against different fungi belonging to Candida; Aspergillus and Penicillium species. Further; zones of inhibition produced by the crude extracts against the fungal strains were measured and compared with those produced by a standard antifungal agent; griseofulvin. The leaf extract was proved to have the maximum activity followed by the flower and the bark extracts against the tested strains. All extracts were found to be fungistatic in their action
