Abstract
The present study gives an account of different life form categories and biological spectrum of Nandini Wildlife Sanctuary. A total of 335 species belonging to 86 families and 251 genera has been recorded from the area and has been grouped into different life forms classes according to Raunkiaer’s lifeform classification. The result indicates Therophytes (40%), and Macrophanerophytes (20.59%) to be the dominant lifeforms followed by Nanophanerophytes (9.85%), Chamaephytes (9.25%) and Hemicryptophytes (9.25%). Biological spectrum on life form have also been prepared and compared with Raunkiaer’s normal biological spectrum as well as the spectra of the adjoining areas prepared by other workers. On comparison with Raunkiaer’s normal spectrum, the present study area depicts Thero-phanerophytic type of phytoclimate.
