| Summary: | The study on species diversity and richness was conducted at Universiti Malaysia Kelantan (UMK) Jeli Campus including UMK new Faculty and UMK Taman Pinggiran. There are two methods used in this study which are plot sampling method where 25 quadrat are thrown randomly within the study area and general observation method by walking around the study area. The total of 27 species of Fabaceae from 19 genera were recorded. The Shannon Diversity Index (H’) value of Fabaceae H’ = 1.44 shows that the H’ value is not too high for tropical research. Desmodium triflorum are the most diverse with H’ = 0.37. The richness index of Desmodium heterophyllum recorded the highest value Dmg = 1.18 and the overall species richness value of Fabaceae are Dmg = 0.67. The comparison table of Fabaceae species recorded are constructed and divided into three subfamilies which are Caesalpinoideae, Mimosoideae and Papilionoideae. Dichotomous key for each subfamily are constructed based on the comparison table and able to be used for references. The data from this study can be used for future research. |
