        abstract = {The pharmaceutical industries are looking for the presence of secondary metabolites as the lead compounds to develop new drugs. Phytochemical analysis and identification of compounds is an important step in the entire process of drug discovery from the plants which have been used traditionally to cure ailments. One of such medicinal plants which has been used traditionally is Euphorbia prostrata Ait., is subjected to GCMS analysis. The plants were shade dried and extracted with ethanol using fine powder of the plant. The GCMS analysis showed the presence of six compounds based on the data base of National Institute Standard and Technology (NIST) and Wiley spectra Libraries. Further studies on the biological activity of these compounds may shed more light on the medicinal importance of this plant.},
