| Summary: | A study on floristic composition has been conducted in recreational park, Bukit Bakar, machang, Kelantan. This study assessed the species richness, evenness and diversity of non-dipterocarp and dipterocarp plants. Forest ecosystem in this area can be classified as lowland dipterocarp forest which been dominated by dipterocarp Species. Plant inventory was carried out in 0.5 ha area and the information recorded include: diameter at breast height, height, and species name. a total of 59 species belonging to 49 families were identified. Results showed Shannon-Weiner Index and Margalef Index of 1.60 and 11.46 respectively for Bukit Bakar recreational park. The floristic composition of family level showed comparatively similar pattern with the other sites of Kelantan although composition of species level was different. |
