- Abstract
Sacred groves are forest patches being conserved by tribal people. Sacred groves are closely associated with religious practices, social duties and taboos. The present study attempts show a key role play to conserve plant species by Kansari Mavli sacred grove. The sacred grove is situated in songadh range of vyara division, Gujarat state. Due to excess use of forest resources for timber, fodder and food, forest cover areas are rapidly decreasing. This forest patch has rich plant diversity and is protected by local people. Total 149 plant species are recorded, studied and collected
