The Himalaya, a recognized global biodiversity hotspot, harbors rich and unique elements of biodiversity which provide enormous ecosystem services for sustenance of upland and downstream communities. The Himalaya is often described as a forested landscape wherein trees are most conspicuous component. Availability and dominance of tree species defines the structure and functioning of different forest types. However, as for other life-forms, comprehensive details of diversity, availability and status of trees, across Himalayan arc are not available. Therefore, development of conservation and sustainable use practices for diverse floristic elements of Himalayan forests and other vegetation types remain challenging.

Realizing this lack of authentic database on diversity and abundance of plant species across life-forms in Indian Himalayan Region (IHR), G.B. Pant National Institute of Himalayan Environment (NIHE) has initiated systematic documentation of plant resources under different life-forms. In this series, documents on tree and shrub diversity of Western Himalaya have been prepared and published in recent years (2016 and 2019, respectively). These documents have proved useful for diverse stakeholders and demand is being raised to extend the scope of such databases for entire IHR.

Considering this demand, the Institute has come up with a detailed documentation of Tree Diversity of IHR under the ‘Himalayan Research Associate’ program of the Mountain Division. It is satisfying to note that Institute has succeeded in compiling information on 1,466 trees in IHR [1,386 angiosperms (1,301 wild, 85 cultivated) and 80 gymnosperms (21 wild, 59 cultivated)]. The document also provides analyses of tree diversity distribution patterns across IHR States and altitude range. The State of Arunachal Pradesh [853 angiosperms (791 wild and 62 cultivated), 54 gymnosperms (18 wild and 36 cultivated)] followed by Meghalaya [874 angiosperms (810 wild and 64 cultivated), 16 gymnosperms (4 wild and 12 cultivated)] and the most tree rich States in IHR. The patterns of altitude distribution and seasonality of flowering and fruiting, along with endemism, threat assessment and use values further adds to the usefulness of this book for wide range of stakeholders.

The book in particular will be extremely useful for master’s students, research scholars, forest managers and nature lovers, who are interested in furthering their knowledge on Himalayan plants. The Institute, especially team of authors, deserves appreciation for continuing with systematic documentation of information on Himalayan biodiversity. I am confident that the readers will enjoy information rich contents of this book. Constructive suggestions from the users of this book will help the Institute in improving future documentations.

Foreword

Trees are most conspicuous features of forest systems, which broadly define structure and function of these ecosystems. Therefore, database of trees at local to global scale has great value. However, such authentic databases are most often missing at all levels. The variations in numbers reported are huge, and thereby causing difficulty in planning for management and effective use. Until recently, when Botanical Gardens Conservation International (BGCI), based on a comprehensive analysis of published data sources and expert input, came up with the number of known tree species in the world as 60,065, the estimates were ranging from 45,000 to 100,000. Analysis of this tree database of the world has not only provided information about tree species rich families and countries but also about geographical distribution of endemic species. This analysis, among others, leads to identification of the conservation priorities and status of the world’s tree species. However, realizing that the conservation and management actions are realized at national, sub-national, and

regional levels, there is a need to have similar authentic databases at different spatial scales.

The Indian Himalayan Region (IHR) is often referred as a forested landscape, so assessment of diversity of tree species in this region assumes high significance. Unfortunately, no attempt has been made to prepare a comprehensive database of tree species of IHR. As a result, evidence based conservation/management planning w.r.t. tree species and forests has not been achieved. Considering this gap, and realizing the wider need, G.B. Pant National Institute of Himalayan Environment (NIHE) undertook the task of preparing authentic inventory of trees of IHR, and analyse the same for depicting patterns across IHR States and altitude range.

In the above context, it is a matter of great satisfaction that for first time a comprehensive database of tree species (both in wild and cultivation) in IHR has been developed and broadly analysed. This book ‘Tree Diversity of Indian Himalayan Region’ is an outcome of the analysis. The document not only provides authentic list of 1466 tree species found in IHR, but also gives information on their habit, distribution (altitude, IHR states, and global), seasonality of phenophases, and uses. The Information on endemic and threatened species has also been included. Since all these datasets have been analysed for IHR States as well as the altitude belts, information included in this document becomes equally important for researchers, managers, conservation biologists, and policy planners. In particular, assessment of species richness, habit (deciduous/evergreen) across altitude belts in different States provides a good base for effective conservation and management planning in respective states. Similarly, occurrence of endemic and threatened species gives an immediate opportunity for species specific research and conservation actions. Considering this, the document can be utilized for various purposes by different stakeholders.

In view of the above, I congratulate the authors for their sincere and hard work. It is very well understood that there is always a scope for improvement, therefore Institute shall greatly appreciate inputs from the readers to improve the contents in tree species database of IHR.

6 TREE DIVERSITY OF INDIAN HIMALAYAN REGION

The Himalaya, one amongst the youngest mountain chains in the world, is considered among the most delicate and fragile regions, which is still evolving. Owing to its geodynamic conditions, even small tampering with the geological equilibrium is expected to initiate environmental changes that may eventually increase to alarming proportion (Valdiya, 1993, 1997, 2001). This region also represents one of the Global Biodiversity Hotspot- the Himalayan Biodiversity Hotspot (HBH).

The Indian Himalayan Region - IHR, occupies the northern boundary (North west to North east) of the country and stretches over 2,500 km from Jammu and Kashmir in the west to Arunachal Pradesh in the east. The region covers partially/fully eleven mountainous states and two Union Territories of India [Jammu and Kashmir (UT), Ladakh (UT), Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura and hill districts of Assam and West Bengal] (Figure:1.1). IHR has a total geographical area of approximately 5,31,250 km². The region is characterized with snow clad peaks, dense forests, glaciers, high altitude wetlands and alpine pasture lands (Valdiya, 1998). With this extensive geographical coverage IHR represents a large part of Himalayan Biodiversity Hotspot. Richness, representativeness and uniqueness of biodiversity components at all levels (genes, species and ecosystems) in the region is well recognized (Rawal et al., 2013). Among others, IHR is well known for diversity of forest types across its horizontal and vertical extents.

1.1. Forests and forest cover status in IHRThe Himalaya is often referred as forested landscape. Forests being an integral part of life, support 70% of global terrestrial biodiversity and provide innumerable services i.e. regulate water cycles, maintain soil quality and reduce the risk of natural disasters such as floods and landslides, as well as directly and indirectly support the livelihoods of billions of people on the globe (MEA, 2005; Eliasch, 2008).

The evidences suggest that extent and diversity of Himalayan forests differ significantly from both tropical and temperate forests of the world (Zobel and Singh, 1997). At the beginning of Cenozoic orogeny, the Himalayan ranges were dominantly tropical wet evergreen forests, which were completely replaced later by the modern flora through the drastic changes during the Miocene orogeny. The diversity and richness of the forests and their flora in region is influenced by various bio-geographic regions like Irano-Turanian, Mediterranean, Indo-Chinese, Indian, Malaysia, Eastern-Asiatic, Circumboreal, Australian, Amazonian, Brazilian, Andean, North American and others (Brandis, 1906; Chatterjee, 1939; Samant and Dhar, 1997). In the western Himalayan region (west of 77°E long.), Euro- Mediterranean affinities are well represented while Chinese and Malasian affinities are evident in the eastern Himalayan region (east of 84°E long.). The major forest types of IHR are described below:

1.1.1. Forest types in IHR In the Himalayan region, eleven forest formation types have been described (Singh and Singh, 1987) based on composition of trees as well as elevation, as detailed below:

(i). Submontane broad leaf ombrophilous forest: Submontane broad leaf Ombrophilous Forests are restrained to the eastern Himalaya (below 1000 m), which is broadly similar to tropical rain forest. These forests consist high species richness, higher evergreen elements and multistratal structure. Dipterocarpus, Kayea, Ailanthus, Echinocarpus, Michelia, Terminalia, Stereospermum, Syzygium, Artocarpus are the key genera of this forest type.

(ii). Submontane seasonal broadleaf forest: Forest type is primarily distributed in eastern and central parts having Shorea robusta as the dominant and most extensively distributed species. However, other dominant species are Shorea assamica, Schima wallichii, Stereospermum personatum, Sterculia spp., Lagerstroemia parviflora, Terminalia spp., Machilus villosa, and Anogeissus latifolia. This forest type extends from eastern Himalaya to western Himalaya, excepting Kashmir.

(iii). Submontane broadleaf summer deciduous forest:These forests are distributed well on nutrient-poor and dry

sites, but sometimes also in moist areas of western Himalaya on skeletal soil. Albizia procera, Haldina cordifolia, Terminalia spp., Toona ciliata, and Anogeissus latifolia form the canopy while Mallotus philippensis and Ougeinia sp. are found in the understory.

(iv). Low-montane needle-leaf forest with concentrated summer leaf drop:This forest type is found throughout the entire Himalaya, with the exception of Kashmir, between altitudes of 1000 and 1800 m. Pinus kesiya in eastern Himalaya and P. roxburghii in central and Western Himalaya are the key species of the forests.

(v). Low-montane sclerophyllous evergreen broadleaf forest:These are comparatively drier forests, with less monsoonal effects and sparsely distributed in Western part of Himalaya. The dominant genus are Olea, Fraxinus, Aesculus, etc. are the dominant species occurring in the forests.

(vi). Mid- montane broadleaf ombrophilous forest:This forest type is mostly confined to eastern Himalaya between 1500 and 3000 m. The dominant genera are Quercus, Castanopsis, Machilus, Magnolia, Acer, etc. and members of Lauraceae. At higher elevations (2400-2700 m), Quercus pachyphylla, Q. lamellosa, Schima wallichii, Engelhardtia spicata, Alnus nepalensis and Cinnamomum spp. are prevailing.

(vii). Low to mid-montane hemi-sclerophyllous broadleaf forest with concentrated summer leaf drop:Between 1500 and 3000 m., this forest type is well distributed in central and western Himalaya. Quercus leucotrichophora, Q. lanuginosa, Q. floribunda, Q. semecarpifolia with Rhododendron arboreum, Lyonia ovalifolia, and Ilex dipyrena are prevailing in this forests type.

(viii). Mid-montane needle-leaf evergreen Forest:This forest formation is scattered in parts of east Himalayan moist temperate forests as well as of the west Himalayan moist temperate forests. Dominant species are mostly needle-leaved, viz., Cedrus deodara, Pinus wallichiana, Abies pindrow, Picea smithiana (spruce) are in the Western part, and Abies delavayi, Tsuga dumosa in the eastern part.

(ix). Mid-montane winter deciduous forest:These forests are mainly occupying in moist places in the region assigned to mid-montane hemi-sclerophyllous and needle leaf evergreen forests. The dominant species are Aesculus indica, Acer spp., Carpinus viminea, Ulmus wallichiana, Betula alnoides, Pyrus lanata, Juglans regia and Fraxinus micrantha.

(x). High-montane mixed stunted forest:At elevation of above 3000 m., theses forests are free from the monsoonal effects, and the vegetation mainly depend

on snowmelt for their water requirement. Betula utilis, Abies spectabilis, Q. semecarpifolia, Pinus wallichiana are common species in the central and western Himalaya. In the eastern Himalaya, the condition are somewhat moist and Abies densa, Juniperus spp. are the key species.

(xi). Very high-montane scrub (Above 3500 m and up to 4900 m):These forests are occurring at the elevation of above 3500 m and up to 4900 m and virtually limited trees are found in the region and most of the growth forms are shrubs and herbs. Apart from the dominant shrub species, Betula utilis, Juniperus spp. etc are found in the region.

1.1.2. Forest cover in IHRThe forest forms major land use / land cover category in IHR (Joshi and Negi, 2011). Forest cover varies in each state or hilly region considerably from 2,368 km² (West Bengal Hills) to 66,688 Km² (Arunachal Pradesh) (FSI, 2019; Table 1.1). As per the available literature, IHR harbors about 8,000 species of Angiosperms (40% endemic), 44 species of Gymnosperms (15.9% endemic), 600 species of Pteridophytes (25% endemic), 1,737 species of Bryophytes (32.5 % endemic), 1,159 species of Lichens (11.2 % endemic) and 6,900 species of Fungi (27.4 % endemic) (Singh and Hajra, 1996).

India holds 10th position in the world, for its Forest and tree cover with having 23.34% of its total geographic area. The IHR contributes nearly 28% of India’s total forest cover (FSI, 2019).

1.2. Trees: the key components of the forest The forest is a complex ecosystem consisting mainly of trees that buffer the earth and support a myriad of life forms and make a forest rich and healthy. Trees are recognized as most precious gift of nature and savior of earth. They provide various economic benefits and numerous environmental services.

As per the definition given by FAO (1998, 2004), a tree has mainly three characteristics:– It is a woody perennial plant,– with a single main stem or in case of coppice several stems, and– has a more or less definite crown.

There are various definitions of a tree as per the tree types and growth habits, which have evolved variously across different plant families. According to IUCN’s Global Tree Specialist Group (GTSG): tree is a woody plant with usually a single stem growing to a height of at least two meters, or if multi-stemmed, then at

least one vertical stem five centimeters in diameter at breast height.

In the present study, tree is considered as a woody perennial plant having a single pole with minimum height of 5 meters (Delijska and Manoilov, 2004). Cycads, tree ferns, tree-like Poaceae, Bromeliaceae, and Musaceae have been excluded from the inventory. Efforts have been made to include the smaller trees by incorporating country level and regional tree lists in addition to World Checklist of Selected Plant Families (WCSP). Some plant species have variable life-forms, but all species that are recorded growing naturally as a tree somewhere have been included.

1.3. Importance of trees:Tree and forests support the living beings variously for sustaining the life and provide various services i.e. provisioning services, regulating services, supporting services and cultural services etc. From an economic perspective these values are described as below:(a) Direct use values: Consumptive and non-consumptive uses of the forests/trees, e.g. timber, fuel, bush meat, food and medicinal plants, extraction of genetic material and tourism.(b) Indirect use values: Include various forest services such as protection of watersheds and the storage of carbon.(c) Option and existence values: Values reflecting a willingness to pay to conserve the option of making use of the forest even though no current use is made of it.

As such, trees are invariably important as savior of our environment and provider of services for human well being. Trees as major component of forest ecosystem play a crucial role in earth’s life support system, which includes global carbon and hydrological cycle.

Realizing the overall importance of trees, and realizing that effective forest conservation requires species-specific action. Global Tree Search Database (http:/ www. Bgci.org/globaltreesearch.php) has been prepared by Botanical Garden Conservation International (BGCI) reporting total number of trees currently known to science as 60,065 which represents 20% of all angiosperms and gymnosperms (Beech et al., 2017).This work at global level has prompted researchers to come-up with the authentic list of tree species in different countries and/or the regions with larger ecological and economic significance. The present work, therefore, is an attempt to describe tree species diversity of Indian Himalayan Region so as to support conservation and development initiatives in this region.

METHODOLOGY

The aim of the work is to prepare inventory and analyze the patterns of tree diversity in Indian Himalayan Region. Various floras, e-floras and other published and unpublished literature has been consulted for compilation of this inventory (Appendix 1). The inventory has been categorized as, (a). wild trees of angiosperms, (b) wild trees of gymnosperms, (c) cultivated trees of angiosperms, and (d) cultivated trees of gymnosperms. The families of Angiosperms and Gymnosperms are arranged alphabetically following Hutchinson (1973), Cronquist (1981) and APG III (2009) classifications. In each family, the genera are arranged alphabetically followed by species, subspecies and variety with standard author abbreviation following Tropicos (http://www.tropicos.org). Each species/ intraspecific taxon, sub species and variety are also arranged alphabetically. Efforts have been made to provide authentic information on each taxa with basionym (if any). Each table also contains information regarding states of occurrence, altitudinal range (meters), leaf persistence (evergreen/ deciduous), flowering and fruiting seasons (months), flower colour, use values and the worldwide distribution.

All the datasets have been analyzed and enumerated for easy understanding. As the compilation was completed in 2019, before declaration of Ladakh as UT, in the present study, Jammu and Kashmir was considered as one state, including Ladakh (UT) and Jammu & Kashmir (UT). For enumerating the diversity patterns along the altitudinal range, eight altitude belts (<500, 501-1000, 1001-1500, 1501-2000, 2001-2500, 2501-3000, 3001-3500, 3501-4000, >4000) were considered. An analysis of IHR trees has been presented for the leaf persistence habits (evergreen/ deciduous) along the altitudinal range as well as across states. Tree species similarities among the various IHR states have been calculated.

Analysis of functional features such as seasonality of flowering and fruiting has been conducted across six division of the year prevernal (in early spring), vernal (in late spring), aestival (in early summer), serotinal (in late summer), autumnal (in the autumn) and hibernal (in the winter) as well along the altitude belts. Use values of the tree species has been assessed under twelve major use categories. Using available literature, endemic and threatened tree species of the IHR have been identified and analyzed for distribution pattern. Outcomes of all analysis across various parameters have been depicted with appropriate graphics and tables. Each cited reference has been listed at end of the text.

A total of 1,466 trees in IHR have been documented (1322, 90.2% wild; 144, 9.8% cultivated). Among these, 1,386 taxa are angiosperms (1,301 wild, 85 cultivated) and 80 taxa (21 wild, 59 cultivated) are gymnosperms. Across states, the maximum tree diversity exists in the State of Arunachal Pradesh [853 angiosperms (791 wild and 62 cultivated), 54 gymnosperms (18 wild and 36 cultivated)] followed by Meghalaya [874 angiosperms (810 wild and 64 cultivated), 16 gymnosperms (4 wild and 12 cultivated) (Annexure-I to IV)]. The reported number of trees in different IHR states has been provided in Table 3.1.

Across IHR, the wild angiosperms tree taxa are represented by 1,242 species, 16 subspecies and 43 varieties; while the cultivated ones comprise of 84 species and 1 variety. Wild gymnosperms are represented by 21 species and cultivated by 59 species.

Analysis was also made to check the tree diversity across the families. Lauraceae (131) among angiosperm and Pinaceae (12) in gymnosperm are the most tree rich families in the IHR among wild trees. Among cultivated trees, Myrtaceae (13) in angiosperms and Pinaceae (19) in gymnosperms are the most species rich families. The detailed analysis of tree rich families in various IHR states is represented in Table 3.2 and 3.3. Further, tree species rich genera in IHR were also analyzed. Ficus with 40 tree species was found the most tree species rich genera followed by Diospyros (29 species), Litsea (28 species), Quercus (23 species), Syzygium (22 species), Acer (21 species), Persea and Symplocos (20 species),

Elaeocarpus and Cinnamomum (17 species), Lindera (16 species) and Rhododendron (15 species). The most tree rich genera are frequently occurring in temperate forest zone.

3.1. Distribution of tree diversity across altitude rangeAnalysis of species diversity shows maximum tree diversity at 501-1000 m altitude band, while a gradual decrease was apparent in higher altitude bands. The patterns were invariably similar in different states (Table 3.4). Out of total

1,301 wild angiosperm trees, over 67% are represented in 501-1000 m altitude range. While gymnosperms show their maximum diversity in the attitude range of 2501-3000 m (95%). The following tables (Table 3.4, 3.5) are representing trees concentration with their number as well percent values at different altitude bands in various Himalayan states.

3.2. Patterns of Evergreen and Deciduous treesWhile analyzing the evergreen/ deciduous elements of IHR, prominence of evergreen tree species (55.9%) is apparent (Table 3.6). However, on east to west transition, a gradual decline of evergreenness and increase of deciduous species diversity is characteristic (Table 3.6). Minimum proportion of evergreen tree species was therefore recorded for Jammu

and Kashmir (28.57%), the extreme north- western state of IHR. Analysis of evergreen/ deciduous angiosperm tree flora of IHR states across the altitude range is presented in the Table 3.7. Cultivated angiosperm trees (Table 3.8) also presents the same trends of evergreen/ deciduousness while the entire wild gymnosperms tree flora falls in evergreen category. There were three deciduous (Ginkgo biloba,

Vernal (74.10%) followed by Aestival (44.50%) are the peak flowering seasons in IHR. However maximum fruiting taxa were also Vernal (74.25%) and Aestival (44.20%).

An analysis of phenological events was also done across the altitudinal belts in IHR. In all the six seasons, maximum flowering as well fruiting taxa were occurred in the altitudinal belt 501-1000 followed by 1001-1500, <500, 1501-2000, 2001-2500, 2501-3000, 3001-3500 and 3501-4000 (Table 3.14, 3.15 ).

climatic, and biological factors can contribute to determine endemism of plants. Endemism characterizes the history of past vegetation, identify taxonomic relationships, floristic regions, determine optimal design of conservation units and prioritize conservation strategies (Richardson, 1978; Street, 1978; Dhar & Kachroo, 1983; Gentry, 1986; Takhtajan, 1986; Dhar, 2002).

India is one of the mega biodiversity countries of the world, with huge diversity in topographical, climatic and habitats. A total of 18,043 species, 296 subspecies, 2,215 varieties, 33 sub varieties and 70 forma of angiosperms, 75 species of gymnosperms and 1,268 species of pteridophytes are reported in India (Singh and Dash, 2018; Singh et al., 2015), which amounts to over 11% of the total recorded plant species in the world.

Among the total tree taxa occurring in IHR, 99 (98 Angiosperms, 1 Gymnosperm) taxa (90 species, 1 subspecies, 8 varieties) are endemic to Indian Himalayan Region accounting around seven percent of their total tree diversity

(Table 3.16). Sterculia khasiana King is considered as extinct by IUCN, thus not listed in the table. Family Lauraceae (42) shows the maximum number of endemic trees followed by Fabaceae (07), Pandanaceae, Rosaceae (04 each) and Myrtaceae (03) (Figure 3.7). Sikkim has most endemic trees (4.88 %) followed by Assam hills (4.79%), Arunachal Pradesh (4.68%) and Meghalaya (4.36%) of their total tree diversity.

3.6. Threatened trees of IHRThe International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) assesses the threat status of species, which are grouped under three categories, depending on the degree to which they are threatened, Vulnerable (VU), Endangered (EN), Critically endangered (CR).

Less-than-threatened categories are near threatened, least concern and the no longer assigned category of conservation dependent. Species which have not been evaluated (NE), or do not have sufficient data or data deficient (DD) also are not considered “threatened” by the IUCN.

About the Institute

G.B. Pant National Institute of Himalayan Environment (formerly known as G.B. Pant Institute of Himalayan Environment & Development) was established in 1988-89, during the birth centenary year of Bharat Ratna Pt. Govind Ballabh Pant, as an autonomous Institute of the Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change (MoEF&CC), Govt. of India, which has been identified as a focal agency to advance scientific knowledge, to evolve integrated management strategies, demon-strate their efficacy for conservation of natural resources, and to ensure environmentally sound development in the entire Indian Himalayan Region (IHR). The Institute attempts to maintain a balance of intricate linkages between socio-cultural, ecological, economic and physical systems that could lead to sustainability in the IHR. To achieve this, the Institute follows a multidisciplinary and holistic approach in all its Research and Development programmes with emphasis on interlinking natural and social sciences. In this effort, particular attention is given to the preservation of fragile mountain ecosystems, indigenous knowledge systems and sustainable use of natural resources. A conscious effort is made to ensure participa-tion of local inhabitants for long-term acceptance and success of various programmes. Training, environmental education and awareness to different stakeholders are essential components of all the R&D programmes of the Institute.
