Abstract:   (930 Views)
The present study was conducted for the first time with the aim of identifying the flora, determining the biological forms and geographical distribution of plant species in the pasture section of Tutkabon-Damash watershed. In order to study floristics, the plant species were collected around during 1399-1400 and identified by the available plant identification guides.159 plant species belonging to 104 genera and 36 families were identified. In terms of the number of species, Poaceae with 30 species, Asteraceae with 16 species, Fabaceae with 15 species and Brassicaceae with 9 species were the richest. Classification of plants based on life form showed that the most life form is related to hemicryptophytes with 83 species (52.83%), followed by geophytes and therophytes each with 30 species (20.75%). From the chorological point of view, we determined that the largest proportion of the flora belongs to the Pluriregional elements (20.75%), followed by Europe-Siberian (18.86%), Europe-Siberian, Iranian-Turanian, Mediterranean (14.46%), Iranian-Turanian  and Europe-Siberian , Iranian-Turanian (11.94%), cosmopolitan (9.43%), European-Siberian, Mediterranean (8.17%), Iranian-Turanian, Mediterranean (4.4%). The protection status of the plant species showed the presence of two rare and endangered species Lilium ledebori, Fritillaria kotschyana also d the vulnerable species Convolvulus cantabrica. The rich biodiversity and the presence of species with high genetic value reveal the need to protect and manage this natural habitat.
