The antibacterial activity of aerial parts of Marrubium catariifolium and Phlomis pungens var. hirta were evaluated by disc diffusion method. The hexane, acetone and methanol extracts were tested against nine bacteria. Two concentrations of hexane extracts of M. catariifolium and P. pungens var. hirta revealed various levels of antibacterial activity, but methanol and acetone extracts of those plants had no activity towards any bacteria examined in this work. The results found in this study showed that increasing concentrations of hexane extracts from M. catariifolium and P. pungens var. hirta appeared to be more active against bacteria.
