The present study was intended to determine the antioxidant, larvicidal, and cytotoxic potential of various extracts of  Asplenium aethiopicum  (Burm. f.) Becherer. Antioxidant potential of the extracts was determined by the DPPH radical scavenging, phosphomolybdenum, and scavenging of H 2 O 2 . Larvicidal activity of  Asplenium aethiopicum  was performed against the fourth instar larvae  Culex quinquefasciatus . Cytotoxic activity was analysed in terms of brine shrimp lethality bioassay. The best free radical scavenging activity was exerted by methanolic extract of  Asplenium aethiopicum  (IC 50  91.4  μ g/mL) followed by acetone extract (IC 50  99.8  μ g/mL). Highest larval mortality was observed in the crude acetone extracts of  Asplenium aethiopicum  against  Culex quinquefasciatus  (LC 50  = 166.6 ppm) followed by methanolic extracts. Acetone extract of  Asplenium aethiopicum  was found to be most effective at which 50% and 90% mortality of brine shrimp nauplii that occurred were found to be 192.8 and 434.3 ppm, respectively. The results of the present study revealed the antioxidant, larvicidal, and cytotoxic potential of  Asplenium aethiopicum .
