摘要: The present study deals with the quantitative floristic inventory of three tropical forest types in Similipal Biosphere Reserve Eastern Ghats Orissa, India. Three were distinct field and differed dominance, composition, diversity structure. resulted documentation a total 549 species flowering plants. Altogether, 4819 stems ≥30 cm gbh belonging to 185 tree enumerated analysed. Tree stand density varied from 527 665 ha-1 average basal area 43.51 m^2ha^(-1). Shannon-Wiener index (H') ranges 4.3 5.46. Similarity revealed that only 25% composition semi-evergreen was similar moist deciduous forest. Analysis population across girth class interval showed around 48.9% individuals belong 30-60 gbh. can serve as baseline information for phytodiversity characterisation forests particular Orissa general.
