Book excerpt: The botanical account of the protected areas is important for the conservation and management of biodiversity and ecosystem. The Pabitora Wildlife Sanctuary is one of such protected area in Assam in North Eastern India. The area is famous for the highest density of the Indian one-horned Rhinoceros in the world. The sanctuary is also well known for its wetland habitat which provides the suitable site for migratory birds and fish fauna. The present study highlights the floristic wealth of the sanctuary which is the outcome of the intensive botanical collection and observation for the period of four year from 1995 to 1998. The present book presents the botanical accounts, phytogeography, vegetation and ecosystem of the sanctuary. It covers 724 species under 492 genera 142 families of vascular plants. The work also focus the pattern of floristic diversity, phenology of some common plants with a brief account of fodder plants, medicinal, economically important plants, rare and endemic plants etc of the area. The study based on the revised taxonomic monographic work and recent taxonomic nomenclature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the outstanding features of the ecology and bio geography of the Indian region, comprising former British India, Nepal, Bhutan, Ceylon and Burma. It summarizes the results of nearly four decades' studies and field explorations and discussions with students on the distribution of plants and animals, practically throughout this vast area and on the underlying factors. A number of specialists in geology, meteorology, botany, zoology, ecology and anthropology have also actively collaborated with me and have contributed valuable chapters in their respective fields. India has an exceptionally rich and highly diversified flora and fauna, exhibiting complex composition, character and affinities. Although the fauna of the Indian region as a whole is less completely known than its flora, we are nevertheless fairly well acquainted with at least the salient features of its faunal characters to enable us to present a meaningful discussion on some of the outstanding peculiarities of the biogeography of India. A general synthesis of the available, though much scattered, information should prove useful to future students of biogeography throughout the world.

Book excerpt: The depletion of biodiversity is an alarming problem all over the country. The world conservation strategy suggests that the initial effort of biodiversity conservation should aim at establishment and maintenance of a network of protected area systems by making policy changes involving local people in the protected areas management and mobilising financial resources for their conservation and protection. The problem of biodiversity conservation has become a global issue. It is being realised that forests existing in a country is not a resource just for that country, but for the whole of the world. The Amazoian Rain Forests have been called the Lungs of the World as they serve to purity of the global atmosphere by release of oxygen and absorption of Pollutants. The rate of deforestation is several times higher in the developing countries than the developed countries, as the forests are being felled to generate funds and space for development. The total number of species in the world is estimated to be around 5 to 30 million but of which about 1.4 millions species have been described. The total number of plant species in India is estimated to be about 45,000 (15,000 flowering plants, 64 gymnosperms, 2843 bryopthes, 1042 pteriodophytes, 1940 lichans and 23,000 fungi). Nearly 4900 of those species are endemic to India out of which 1500 are highly threatened (MOEF, 1994).
