چکیده | ||
.The flora in protected areas represents important assets for the wildlife such as forage, shelter, breeding sites, and water. The floristic composition of Mikumi National Park (MINAPA) is still fragmented, and not well understood, limiting the implementation of feasible conservation and management techniques. We analyzed plant species records from unpublished surveys (1960s-1990s), and a most recent survey in 2021 to update the list for MINAPA based on the classification of the APG IV. In total, 951 species records were organized, within 504 genera and 124 families, of which 35 species were listed in the IUCN red list whereby (15 (1.6%) are vulnerable, 7 (0.7%) are Near Threatened, 10 (1.0%) are Endangered and 3 (0.3%) are Critically Endangered (CR)). Sixteen (16) species were endemic to Tanzania. A total of 778 species were from the 1960s-1990s surveys, distributed across 421 genera and 106 families, 12 of which (1.5%) were in the IUCN red list. A total of 173 (18.2%) are newly recorded in 2021 (not in the 1960s-1990s list). The newly recorded were distributed across 148 genera and 58 families, including 21 (2.2%) species in the IUCN red list, and thirteen (13) species endemic to Tanzania. In general, this work significantly improved our understanding of the flora of MINAPA and draws concern for ensuring regular surveys to update floral resources status in protected areas where reports are of the old taxonomic nomenclature. It contributes to the improvement of scientific research and management techniques under the ongoing changes in climatic conditions. | ||
