Threatened Endemic Plants From Western Ghats India - An Appraisal Of Systematic Study

<p>Plants animals and microorganisms in a natural biological community constitute a web of co-adopted species which can sustain themselves without any human input. In such a community survival of any organism is due to the interaction between and amongst the individuals and the environment. The main aim of this book is to transmit the recent scientific information on tropical plant species diversity particularly endemic and threatened plants. This book incorporated various aspects of endemic and threatened plants in the southern western ghats such as correct binomial name with nomenclature its botanical description season of flowering and fruiting distribution and status. This book comprises 4 chapters which embodies the wealth of knowledge on diversified aspects of RET species. This book would be markedly useful for the plant taxonomists botanists foresters ecologists environmentalists ethnobotanists academicians researchers conservationists and etc. Information on tropical plant species diversity is needed because of its potential usefulness in understanding the relative extent of plant diversity across the tropics and its maintenance and implication for conservation and management. </p>
