ABSTRACT
The Present Investigation deals with phytosociological characters of riparian vegetation of Gujar Tal wetlands, Khetasarai Jaunpur. For the present study Gujar wetland was differentiated in to two zones (upper zone site-1 and lower zone site-2). The species composition, phytosociological characters of vegetation of 46 species of two study sites were observed during pre-flowering stage. A total of 31 and 30 species were found on site -1 and site- 2 respectively. The quantitative analysis of the vegetation reveals that the greater area of site-1 and 2 were occupied by the two dominant species Spilanthes paniculate and Mollugo hirta with 100% frequency and maximum abundance value.
