Anyway I am attaching the excel sheet of plants discussed during the Kas week as suggested by … This covers around 400+posts posted during the week. There are plants from 53 families excluding Fungi,Fern and mosses with total number of plants 180 which includes 3 synonyms which I have incorporated. So total will be 177 including 1 Fungus 1Fern and 1 moss.so Only Plants will be 174. I agree with … that we were expecting plants exclusively from KAS Plateau but unfortunately many nearby plants were also posted which are found from most of the places of western ghats. It is difficult for me to exclude them from the data. Shrikant ji might come with that exclusive data derived from this.
Thanks … for this useful analysis of Kas uploads. It should really help in better understanding of the Flora of the region. Another wonderful effort as was the case with VOF list. I have sorted the list provided by … for the aspect of habitat. I am ataching the list here. It will be seen that there are a few ‘also ran’ plants that are not the characteristic of the lateritic plateau yet grow there in small patches. Plants that did not feature are also listed. I appeal members to visit this location in all seasons to know its flora.
