The present study investigates various Pharmacognostic parameters of the stem bark of Ficus amplissima Sm. (family: Moraceae). Macroscopic and microscopic evaluations, physicochemical analyses, and the behaviour of the powdered drug with different chemical reagents were systematically examined. Successive extraction of the stem bark using solvents of increasing polarity was performed, and the resulting extracts were subjected to phytochemical screening. The analysis revealed the presence of key bioactive constituents such as alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, and phenolic compounds. These preliminary findings contribute to establishing standardization parameters for the stem bark of Ficus amplissima Sm. Furthermore, High-Resolution Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (HR-LCMS) was employed as a robust analytical tool to identify and quantify secondary metabolites, highlighting its significance in botanical and Pharmacognostic studies.
