Abstract: The present study was carried out to evaluate the preliminary phytochemical analysis, larvicidal and blood coagulative properties of Sphagneticola trilobata (L.) Pruski & Lantana camara (L.). The leaves were selected for this study. Aqueous extract used for phytochemical analysis. In plants the secondary metabolites are responsible for metabolic activities and defensive in purpose. Phytochemical analysis shows the presence of carbohydrates, alkaloids, phenols, saponins, tannins and flavonoids in both of these plants. Therefore they contain medicinally active phyto components. These plant materials have potent larvicidal activity against the Culex larvae. L. Camara showed higher larvicidal activity. These plant extracts shows brilliant blood coagulating property. So these invasive plant extracts are very useful as coagulant in bleeding diseases and wound healing.
