Salvadora persica L. and Acacia nilotica (L.) have the greatest IVI ranges, while Mangifera indica L., Limonia acidissima L. have the lowest range of IVI. All tree species present in the study area are identified using the "Flora of  Gujarat"  state by shah (1978) and flora of Bombay presidency by Cooke (1903).
