Title

Diversity of Pteridophytes along the Stretches of Thamiraparani River (West), Kanyakuamri District, Tamilnadu, India

Abstract

An enumeration of pteridophytes was undertaken in the downstream reaches of Thamiraparani river, Southern Western Ghats. Sixty five species of pteridophytes belonging to 23 families and 44 genera were recorded. Most of the taxa recorded have great ornamental and medicinal value. Adiantaceae was the dominant family with 4 genera and 10 taxa, followed by Pteridaceae with 5 genera and 8 species, Dryopteridaceae with 4 genera and 6 species, Polypodiaceae with 5 genera and 5 species, Selaginellaceae and Thelypteridaceae with 5 species each and Lindseaceae with 3 species. Most of the species were terrestrial (36 species). The epiphytic taxon, Huperzhia phlegmaria was found to be very rare in the study area and was represented by only 12 individuals.

Key Words
