Abstract

A taxonomic survey was conducted to study pteridophyte flora of Rampahar and Sitapahar reserve forests under Rangamati district in Bangladesh.

The study found 41 pteridophyte species belonging to 26 genera under 13 families from the area. It constitutes 21 per cent of total fern flora of the country including one threatened species viz.
