Floristic Composition and Indigenous Uses of Poaceae and Cyperaceae Family in Bolpur-Santiniketan

A survey of the Bolpur-Santiniketan region in West Bengal, India, identified sixteen grass species belonging to the Poaceae and Cyperaceae families. This study contributes to the documentation of local floristic diversity by systematically collecting, drying, mounting, and identifying each plant species on herbarium sheets. The research provides a baseline for understanding the indigenous uses and ecological significance of these grasses in the UNESCO World Heritage Site, offering valuable insights into the region's botanical richness.
