Monotypic Genera of Angiosperms in Indian Flora Need for Conservation

Abstract

In this paper monotypie genera of angiosperms in Indian flora have been enumerated. The number of such genera amounts to 189. The family Poaceae has the maximum number (32) of monotypie genera. In this communication emphasis is laid on the conservation of monotypics, for if they are lost, we will loose them for ever. Hubbardia (Poaceae) is said to be facing extinction while Meeboldia has not been collected after the type collection.
