They include common genera such as Acacia, Senna, Sida and Eremophila varieties that make up the bulk of the flora and vegetation of the Yakabindie tenements. These species are generally not salt tolerant, however may demonstrate tolerances to a wide variety of soil types with corresponding range of inferred geochemistry.

Box 27272, Sharjah, UAE 4Permanent address: Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Al-Arish University, Al-Arish, Egypt *Author for correspondence: [email protected] Background and aims – This study describes the dispersal traits of 302 species in five Afro-Arabian habitats from the hyper-arid hot desert of United Arabian Emirates (UAE). Methods – Diaspore size (diaspora length) was studied in relation to growth forms, dispersal modes, presence of structures for long distance dispersal, APG IV groups, phytogeography and dispersal phenology using ANOVA and Pearson χ2 test-statistical analyses. Results – Small diaspores were predominant (six orders of magnitude from 10-4 to 102). The major diaspores were found in Fabids phylogenetic APG IV group (1.80±0.41 cm) mainly trees and the minor in Commelinids (0.30±0.08 cm). The most dominant dispersal mode was semachory (43.7% of the total and 67.5% of the herbaceous species), followed by anemo-meteochory (28.8%) and barochory (23.8%). Semachores/barochores (67.5%) formed the largest groups from the Fabaceae, Poaceae, Boraginaceae, Brassicaceae and Amaranthaceae families.
