THREE HITHERTO UNREPORTED MACRO-FUNGI FROM KASHMIR HIMALAYA SHAUKET AHMED PALA*, ABDUL HAMID WANI, ROUF HAMZA BODA AND RIYAZ AHMED MIR Section of Mycology and Plant Pathology, Department of Botany, University of Kashmir, Srinagar, Hazratbal-190006. *Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The Himalayan state, Jammu and Kashmir due to its climate ranging from tropical deciduous forests to temperate and coniferous forests provides congenial habitat for the growth of diverse macro fungal species which in turn gives it the status of ‘hub’ of macro-fungal species. The macro fungal species richness of the state is directly related to its expansive forest communities and diverse weather patterns, but all the regions of the state have not been extensively surveyed till now. In this backdrop, a systematic survey for exploration and inventorization of macro fungal species of Western Kashmir Himalaya was undertaken during the year 2009 and 2010, which in turn resulted identification of the three species viz., Thelephora caryophyllea (Schaeff.) Pers., Coltricia cinnamomea (Pers.) Murr., and Guepinia helvelloides Fr. as new reports from the Kashmir. These species were identified on the basis of macro and microscopic characters and also the aid of taxonomic keys, field manuals, mushroom herbaria and help from expert taxonomists in the related field was taken into account.

A total of three earthworm species -Aporrrectodea rosea rosea ,, Aporrrectodea caliginosa trapezoids and Octalasion cyaneum belong to family lumbricidae were recorded. Out of the three species O. cyaneum exhibited restricted distribution whereas A. r. rosea and A. C. trapezoides were present at majority of the sites. The density and biomass exhibited significant variation (F 4 = 6.66; 37.77, P < 0.05) within the sites and among (F 3 = 4.77; 15.08, P < 0.05) the seasons with higher values recorded during autumn and spring. Diversity indices - Margalef species richness (0.150-0.679), Simpson’s index (0.370 -0.600), Shannon diversity index (0.556-1.102) and evenness (0.872 -1.033) also exhibited varied values among the sites with maximum value at site -III. Organic nitrogen showed significant variation within the sites (F 4 = 5.43, P < 0.05) and among the seasons (F 3 = 6.27, P < 0.05), within the sites in moisture (F 4 = 3.39, P < 0.05) and electrical conductivity (F 4 = 17.89, P < 0.05) whereas among the seasons in temperature (F 3 = 22.88, P < 0.05) and organic carbon (F 3 = 10.12, P < 0.05).

The study was conducted from June to Dec. 2014 with primary objectives to gain preliminary understanding of the geology of the area, study the geology of the area by understanding the Contours with the help of Remote Sensing, study the rocks of the area and understand the soil profile of the area along with some parameters which help in understanding the type of the soil in that area. For carrying out the study, the following methodology was adopted. The Contour map was developed using the GIS software i.e. ARCVIEW and ERDAS and image developed the Contour map was Land sat 1992. Rock samples were obtained from out cut by using geological equipments. The soil profile cut was done with varied depth at particular places. The slope is very steep to very Gentle ranging from3250-2300m (a.m.s.l). During the study a number of rocks including Traps , Limestone, Quartzite, Quartz, Sandstone, Sand Concretions, and Quartz Arenite were found in the type of rocks present in Doodhpathri area seems to belong to the lower Carboniferous area with Syringothyris Limestone with 300m thickness.

  • Conservation Status of Ajuga Bracteosa Wall Ex Benth: an Important Medicinal Plant Species of Kashmir Himalaya
    International Journal of Ecology and Ecosolution Vol. 3(1), pp. 1-6, February 2016 ISSN: 2437 - 1327 Full Length Research Paper Conservation status of Ajuga bracteosa Wall ex Benth: An important medicinal plant species of Kashmir Himalaya Bilal A. Tali*, Aijaz Hassan Ganie and Irshad A. Nawchoo Department of Botany, University of Kashmir, Srinagar, 190006, J & K. India. Accepted 5 January, 2016 ABSTRACT Ajuga bracteosa Wall ex Benth. is an important medicinal plant species of Kashmir Himalaya. Traditionally the species is used to treat various diseases in Kashmir valley. In the present study, the threat status of the species was evaluated in accordance with IUCN Regional Guidelines 2003 version 3.0 following IUCN categories and Criteria 2010 version 8.1. The present investigation revealed that the total number of sub- populations in Kashmir valley is 42 and the mature individuals are 30,850. The calculated Extent of Occurrence and Area of Occupancy of the species turned out to be 583 and 336 km2, respectively. The rigorous data collected during the course of present study revealed that the plant species does not qualify for any of the threat category in Kashmir valley. The species is subjected to various threats like construction of roads and buildings, landslides, exploitation for local use etc. if these threatening factors continue to prevail, the species may become threatened in near future. Keywords: Traditional, IUCN regional guidelines, sub-population, extent of occurrence, area of occupancy. *Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected]. INTRODUCTION Wild plants are rapidly disappearing due to tremendous accelerated. The emerging magnitude of the increase in human population, urbanization, habitat contemporary extinction crises has inspired a massive fragmentation and the increased dependency of the poor effort to evaluate and monitor the risk of extinction faced on the limited natural resources (Woodruff, 2001).

  • A Reconstruction of Long-Term Pastoralist Ecology in the Kashmir Valley
    THE UNIVERSITY OF SYDNEY Mountain and meadow: A reconstruction of long-term pastoralist ecology in the Kashmir Valley Michael Spate A thesis submitted in fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Department of Archaeology December 2019 Statement of Originality This is to certify that to the best of my knowledge, the content of this thesis is my own work. This thesis has not been submitted for any degree or other purposes. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. Michael Spate 12/12/2019 ii Abstract The cultural history of the Kashmir Valley in the Western Himalayas spans at least 4500 years, beginning with some of the known Neolithic Agricultural villages in the mountainous regions of the northern Indian Subcontinent. The development of agriculture in the valley, and subsequent periods of cultural expansion have been attributed to economic growth that capitalised on warm-humid climate phases in the region, often followed by periods of supposed social collapse driven by the onset of cold-arid conditions. More recently, Kashmiri archaeologists have argued that these near- Malthusian interpretations result from a methodological focus on a handful of large sites, and that the Kashmir Valley contains multiple ecological niches suitable for a wide range of economic or ecological adaptation. This study therefore seeks to build on the growing palaeoenvironmental and archaeological data that suggests a more complex picture of social and ecological change in the valley.

The Kashmir valley located in the northern extreme of India lies between 33020’ and 34054’ N latitude and 730 55’ and 75035’ E longitude. The forests constituting more than 20% of the geographical area harbors diverse macrofungal species due to their wide variability in climate altitude and nature of species constituting them. The mushroom flora of the Kashmir Valley has not been documented completely until now. In this backdrop, a systematic survey for exploration and inventorization of macrofungal species of Western Kashmir Himalaya was undertaken during the year 2009-2010. During the study six species viz. Agrocybe molesta, Coprinus plicatilis, Inonotus hispidus, Paxillus involutus, Psathyrella candolleana, and Russula fragilis were identified the first time from the Kashmir.
