Abstract
Based on the highest importance value Pinus-Abies-Sophora, Pinus-Abies, Abies-Cedrus, Abies-Pinus and Pinus-Abies communities are established in Push Ziarat area. All the communities contained economically valuable timber; firewood, medicinal and aromatic plants. The study showed that the vegetation cover is depleting at a very high pace due to population explosion and bringing terrestrial ecosystems in their agri.-land use. The communities so established reflected the characters of dry temperate entities.
