ABSTRACT
For better understand of forest ecosystems it is important to study the Phytosociological aspects and diversity pattern of plants in these ecosystems. Phytosociology deals with plant communities, their composition, development, and the relationships between the species within the ecosystem. The structure of a community is determined mainly by the dominating plant species and not by other characteristics. The quantitative characters with reference to density, diversity and frequency distribution could well act as indicators of disturbances that are affecting the various forest types and such studies would help in understanding the threats that are being faced by the forests and would help in deriving conservation policies. The present research is an attempt to assess the phytosociology of tree species in Nagrakata forest beat.
Key words: Biodiversity, Phytosociology, Quadrate, Dominance, IVI, Community indices.
