They cover an area of 7640 Sq.Km. Forests are of moist deciduous, dry deciduous and scrub type. In our study we recorded 249 tree species belonging to 139 genera and 54 families. Thirty nine species are additional distributional records for Nallamalais. The dominant family is Euphorbiaceae with 27 tree species. Of the 249 tree taxa recorded from the sampled grids, 102 taxa (47.66%) yield edible fruits, 97 (45.32%) with timber value, 138 (64.48%) are medicinal, 39 (18.26%) with fiber value, 47 (22%) with fuel wood value and 73 taxa (34%) of miscellaneous uses. The mode of dispersal of trees is mainly by Autochory (47%) followed by Zoochory (37%) and Anemochory (16%). We recorded 59, 319 individuals of trees from 276 transects. The highest density and IVI is recorded with Anogeissus latifolia (9.37%). In Nallamalais our study identified Saleswaram, Srisailam, Gundlabrahmeswaram, Ahobilam and Cumbum for conservation priority. |
