A checklist of the flora of Budongo Forest Reserve, Uganda, with notes on ecology and phenology
- Abstract:
-
Budongo Forest Reserve, with nearly 40,000 ha of forest, is one of the best documented forests in Africa. Some areas are protected in Nature Reserves but most of the forest has been selectively logged for timber. This report describes some aspects of the ecology of the past and present unlogged forest, and of the existing logged and regenerating forests, particularly the relationships between different vegetation communities.
All species of vascular plants known to occur in the Forest Reserve, including wooded grassland, are listed with local names, collection numbers, seasons of flowering and fruiting, and habitats.
The plant forms and habitats are tabulated for all 866 species, and the months of flowering and fruiting are tabulated for all 725 forest species.
