The Flora of Iran is very rich due to the diverse climatic and soil conditions in mdifferent ecological regions. Iran has around 10000 species of wild plant of which about 850 are considered being medicinally important. In the present work the phytochemistry of several Iranian medicinal plants and their possible usage will be discussed.

Five taxa of Lepiota, namely, L. anthomyces, L. serena, L. metulaespora, L. roseoalba and L. cristata were collectedfrom different localities are described in details. Microscopic and macroscopic descriptions along with drawings are given for all the five species. Of  these   L. anthomyces, L. serena, L. metulaespora and L. roseoalba,are newly recorded for Iranian fungus flora.

Although planktonic algae are a basic component of freshwater ecosystems, studies on their diversity and species distribution still not in satisfactory numbers. This study aims to contribute Turkish algal flora particularly with the new records reported. A total 158 Charophyta taxa were determined conducted from 2017 2019 25 river basins Turkey. In this study, while highest taxon was found Saka...

Macaronesia, which includes five mid-Atlantic archipelagos (Azores, Madeira, Selvagems, Canaries, and Cape Verdes), has been traditionally recognized as a distinct biogeographic unit whose circumscription has been intimately associated with the hypothesis that the flora is a relict of a formerly broadly distributed subtropical Tertiary flora. The concept of Macaronesia is revisited here using p...

ABSTRACT The present work aims to describe the sampling design and methods used in series “Periphytic algal flora of Lower Doce River basin (Espírito Santo State, Brazil) after ore tailings flow”. This will biodiversity periphytic algae registered during Aquatic Biodiversity Monitoring Program, Environmental Area I, carried out three years passage from Fundão dam (Mariana, Minas Gerais). Sample...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Poultry are more susceptible to receiving and spreading of fungal infections in exact conditions. The goal of this study was to identify the normal fungal flora and dermatophytes agent of the combs and wattles of adult native chickens in Tehran, Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 150 combs and wattles samples were collected by skin scraping or brushing of the mar...

nvestigations on indigenous and non-indigenous invasive flora fauna of a certain geographical area are always important to assess their impact native biodiversity control spread by making conservation strategies protect biodiversity. In this study, we have encountered overwhelming growth six seaweed species, Caulerpa racemosa, C. serrulata, sertularioides, taxifolia, peltata, Halimeda opuntia t...
