Phytosociological studies reveal tree species richness in Salumarada Thimmakka Park, suggesting effective management strategies.

To assess the diversity and composition of tree species for forest conservation and monitoring.
Conducted in Salumarada Thimmakka Park using random sampling and quadrants.
Assessed biodiversity index to evaluate ecological health, species richness, and distribution.
Utilized Shannon-Weiner and Simpson’s Diversity Indices to measure species abundance and evenness.
Identified 240 tree species across 8 families, with Fabaceae and Santalaceae as dominant families.
Highest IVI recorded for Santalum album (54.23) and lowest for Mangifera indica (4.6).
Quadrant 4 exhibited the highest biodiversity compared to others.

D et al. (2025) studied this question.
