Abstract
Shirkai sacred grove, one of the 31 sacred groves from Panshet dam catchment area, was studied with qualitative and quantitative approach. Quantitative evaluation of plant diversity in sacred groves is found to be an important aspect for in situ conservation programme. In the present study, 116 species from 54 families were collected in the post monsoon season. Wild germplasm of bamboo and rare endangered plants are special features of Shirkai. The vegetation is found to be diverse and evenly distributed with Shannon’s diversity index (1.67) and modified Hills ratio (6.45).
