Abstract
The present study was carried out to understand the Biological spectrum of the flora of Madhav National Park. A total of 65 species, 59 genera belonging 41 families were estimated from the study area. Leguminaceae was the dominant family (10.60%) recorded under present investigation. The major class of life form was found to be Phanerophytes (Ph = 63.07%), Chamaephytes (Ch = 18.46%), Hemicryptophyte (He = 13.84%), Cryptophytes (Cr = 1.53%) and Therophytes (Th = 3.07) were represented by 41, 12, 9, 1 and 2 species respectively. Most of the plant species had flowering and fruiting in rainy season, followed by summer season and very few species in winter season.
