Abstract

Iran is one of the most important centers of biodiversity in the old world. About 22% of the total 8000 plant species are endemic to IRAN. Therefore, study of the FLORA and vegetation is important. The northern forests of IRAN are diverse ecosystems of Euxine-Hyrcanian province in Euro-Siberian region and Holarctic kingdom. Floristic Study of a habitat is valuable for continuing ecological research, management and conservation of plants. Richness and diversity of plants and various forest types in Dodangeh, 80 km to south of Sari, make it a unique habitat to study floristically. The eastern forests of Dodangeh, with the area of about 8000 ha., is located in the latitude of 36o 07' to 36o 12' and longitude of 53o 20' to 53o 25'. The altitude is varied from 700 to 2010 m.a.s.l. The mean annual precipitation is 741 mm. Plant species collections were performed in May, June and November of 2006. The species were identified and their chorology and LIFE FORM were determined. The results revealed the existence of 237 plant species, belonging to 10 families of Pteridophytes and 60 families of Angiosperms. Most of species belong to Asteraceae, Lamiaceae and Rosaceae, respectively. According to Raunkiaer’s classification of LIFE FORMs, hemicryptophytes, geophytes, phanerophytes, therophytes and chamaephytes include 46%, 19%, 17%, 14% and 4% of the total species, respectively. CHOROTYPEs, based on Zohary, showed that most of the species belong to province Hyrcanian and Euro-Siberian-Mediterranean-IranoTuranean regions.
