Ethnobiology is the study of the past and present interrelationships between human cultures and the plants, animals, and other organisms in their environment, including relationships with ecosystems as a whole. Ethnobiology is interdisciplinary and draws on knowledge from many different fields of knowledge, such as linguistics, anthropology, biology, and chemistry.

Ethnobiology can be divided into several subdisciplines, including ethnobotany, ethnozoology, ethnomycology, ethnolichenology, ethnoentomology, ethnoecology, paleoethnobotany, and zooarchaeology.
