Abstract
The diverse types of ecosystems interact amongst each other, thus holding the diver’s life on earth. One such major terrestrial ecosystem is the forest. Human being and forest are interdependent for survive. Misuse of forest reduces the ethics and morals of being a human. The Kothari-Gondpipari-Pombhurna Forest Range/patch is situated in South South East side of Tadoba National Forest in Chandrapur district. According to the plant biodiversity study of Kothari-Pombhurna Forest Range, it has been observed that there are more than 20 herbs species, more than 25 shrubs species and more than 70 tress species. Dendrocalamus strictus Argemone mexicana, Tridax procumbens, Tectona grandis, Acacia nilotica and Boswellia arrata are the common plants in the forest. It has been seen during the survey that Tectona grandis, Lantana camara, Acacia sp., etc are the dominating plants of Kothari-Gondpipari-Pombhurna Forest Range. They can restrict or dominate to other species growth. The soaring human and cattle population have burdened extreme pressure on ecosystem. It decreases the flora of forest. The hoteling, highway, transportation and tourism within the forest have degrading the forest ecosystem. Now there is the need to improve and increase of forest cover.
