Abstract

An investigation was conducted to study the existing floral composition in Kusmi Forest, located in Sidhi (Madhya Pradesh). The choice of the present area of Kusmi Forest for this floristic study was driven by its lack of attention towards its vegetation. The forest's vegetation was characterized as dry deciduous, thorny scrub type. A total of more than 135 plant species, representing over 49 families, were examined. Among these families, Caesalpiniaceae and Mimosaceae stood out as the most dominant. This publication provides the first-ever comprehensive floristic information about the tree flora present in Kusmi Forest.
