Abstract:

The paper summarises the evolution of angiosperms in different zones of Himalaya. The Himalayan Cenozoic flora has been divided age-wise as Palaeogene and Neogene flora. The Himalayan Palaeogene flora is largely a continuation of tropical peninsular flora of India. The early Miocene flora of Lesser Himalaya is also moist tropical. However, temperate plants started appearing during Miocene in the Higher Himalaya and their occurrence in Plio-Pleistocene flora of Kashmir reflect uplift of the Himalaya. The sub-Himalayan flora indicates existence of warm humid conditions in this belt which became

Abstract:

The western Himalaya represent an important and distinct botanical sub-region and biogeographic zone in the Himalayan Biodiversity Hotspot. There is a long history of floral exploration in this region as compared to the eastern Himalaya; however, recent additions of several species to western Himalayan flora reveal remote areas yet to be explored intensively. The present reports on Anemone trullifolia and Berberis angulosa from the subalpine-alpine areas of western Himalaya also emphasize the need for further exploration. In this article, a brief description of these species is presented along

Abstract:

From 1975–1980, an investigation of rusts of the Sino-Himalayan flora was undertaken by an interdisciplinary research team of the Academia Sinica. The Sino-Himalayan plateau (Xizang) is a varied and unique physicogeographical region with combined effects of high altitude, vast expanse, and latitudinal position. A special category of montane (1000–6000 m) and its forest rust flora is proposed. This preliminary study of the hosts and their rusts includes 110 species and 26 genera in five families of rusts. According to biogeographical and ecological analysis, the Sino-Himalayan rust flora can be

The diverse Palaeogene floras of Himalaya are marked by moist deciduous and wet semi-evergreen forest types growing mostly under tropical climate in varying type of environments. The tropical families register a decline in the Early Miocene time. The Middle Miocene Himalayan orogeny coincides with proliferation of Abietineae and by the appearance of several subtropical floral elements. Development and diversity of

Abstract:

The species Stellaria umbellata is reported as a new record for the western Himalayan flora. Critical examination of the species in nature, Indian herbaria, online herbaria and protologue confirmed its identity as Stellaria umbellata. Earlier, it was erroneously identified in the western Himalaya as Stellaria subumbellata or Holosteum umbellatum. This species was previously not reported from the western, central or eastern Himalaya and thus, it is also a new record for the flora of the Himalaya.

Background Diversification patterns in the Himalayas have been important to our understanding of global biodiversity. Despite recent broad-scale studies, the most diverse angiosperm genus of the temperate zone—Carex L.

Here the timing and phylogenetic pattern of lineage and ecological diversification were inferred in this ecologically significant genus.

In India the earliest angiospermous plants are known in the form of pollen/fruit or ?flower from the Lower Cretaceous (Aptian) of Rajmahal flora.

The definite records of angiosperms started appearing from the Lameta flora considered as Maastrichtian in age. During the Upper Maastrichtian-Danian they became the most dominant element of the flora. An influx of Southeast Asian elements could only be noticed in the beginning of the Neogene.

Previous studies suggested that the EAF is ancient and the Metasequoia Flora is older than the Rhododendron Flora.

Abstract:

The stratigraphy and evolution of the plant-bearing horizions of the extra-peninsular region are reviewed and their similarities and differences with typical peninsular Gondwana are discussed to assess the problem of concepts, limits and extension of Gondwana in this region. It is inferred that the Lesser Himalayan sequence represents continuation of the peninsular Gondwana Sequence, while that of Tethyan Himalayan region departs from typical mainland Gondwana in sedimentation, flora and geological set up. Thus the use of the informal stratigraphic term Gondwana Sequence for this belt is not j

Natural products continue to play an extremely important role but less appreciated aspect is that the plant species not always possess identical chemical constituents even within the same species (having same morphological features). These may possess different chemical metabolites, consequently affecting their medicinal property

East Asia is a very integral region, the East Asian sub-kingdom of the Holarctic, in which two large areas stand out: the Sino-Himalayan and Sino-Japanese. The flora of East Asia is rich and unique. About 25 000 species of vascular plants grow in this area. There are about 23 endemic families and over 350 endemic genera. The number of endemic species is about 15 000. In East Asia, there are modern centers of diversity for many plants, but there are also many relict groups that have survived in this territory from past richly developed types.
