Recognizing the importance of sacred groves in biodiversity conservation and management, and the recent threats to them, the
present study was conducted in Shivbari sacred grove of Himachal Pradesh. The study aimed at documenting the floral wealth
of Shivbari and promoting plantation of indigenous species in participation with local people. For this, systematic field
surveys in different seasons were conducted in Shivbari from April 2005 to November 2009, and liaison was maintained with
the local community and temple management authority for gaining insight into the history and problems of Shivbari and initiating
plantation activities. A total of 69 flowering plant species were identified inside the grove, which include 14 trees, 9 shrubs,
3 lianas and 43 herbs. This represents almost 2% of the total flowering plant species occurring in the state of Himachal Pradesh.
Mallotus philippensis followed by Putranjiva roxburghii was the most dominant tree species. Adhatoda
zeylanica was the most common shrub species, while Achyranthes aspera was the most common herb species. The grove harbours 23 plants species that are in high demand in the market, and at the
same time also influences the microclimate of the area. The temperature inside the grove was significantly lower than the
temperature outside the grove. The recent changes in socio-economic status of the local people and a shift towards market-oriented
economy have threatened the survival of Shivbari. However, the deeply held beliefs of the pilgrims, local people and priest
offer a ray of hope. During the course of the study, 3,000 plants were planted inside the grove out of which 60% have survived. 相似文献
