Abstract

Managers in conservation biology are continually faced with the dilemma of needing to demonstrate which areas should receive conservation priority based on their diversity of species. Darenasab (Hashtadpahloo) forest catchment with dominant oak species in centeral Zagross of Iran was chosen as a study area. Field methods that sample both trees and herbs strata simultaneously, (modified multi-scale Whittaker plots) was used to make SPECIES-AREA CURVES. Three species-area, species-log (area) and log (species)-log (area) curve models were constructed for four vegetation types using MODIFIED MULTI-SCALE WHITTAKER PLOTS data, based on comparisons of estimated and observed species in each vegetation types. Species - log (area) curve corrected by Jaccard’s coefficient had the highest accuracies and were chosen to compare plant diversity in different vegetation types. The index of vegetation types contribution to regional diversity for conservation priority, based on ranking of the mean number of species per plots, slopes of the species - log (area) curves, mean of Jaccard’s coefficient, mean number of unique species, and the number of threatened species in each vegetation types were calculated. This composite index may provide an appropriate approach to rank vegetation types for high conservation value.
