Le Parc Hann est un patrimoine de biodiversité du Sénégal et présente une diversité floristique assez intéressante pour la population. Cependant, il existe très peu de données scientifiques sur cette flore. Cette étude a été réalisée dans le but de caractériser la flore ligneuse du Parc de Hann et d’établir les spectres taxonomique, biologique et chorologique. Les données ont été collectées de Décembre 2017 à Avril 2018 à la suite d’un inventaire itinérant. Les travaux ont permis de répertorier 121 espèces ligneuses réparties dans 100 genres et 38 familles. Parmi ces espèces, 8 n’ont pas été citées dans la flore du Sénégal et 11 étaient partiellement protégées par le code forestier du Sénégal. Les résultats ont montré que la flore du Parc est constituée de 99% d’Angiospermes. La famille des Fabaceae est la plus représentée avec 23,14% des espèces recensées. En outre, l’analyse du spectre biologique a montré que la flore est dominée par les mésophanérophytes (46,28%) suivi des microphanérophytes (37,19%). La flore est dominée par les espèces afrotropicales (42,98%) et les espèces pantropicales (23,14%). La caractérisation de la flore ligneuse du Parc de Hann a permis de comprendre que la gestion de la biodiversité urbaine doit être faite de manière permanente avec un contrôle régulier du cadre de vie. Located in the capital city of Senegal, the Hann Park plays an important role in phytodiversity conservation in a context of global changes. Therefore, knowledge of floristic composition and phytosociology are key factors for a better phytodiversity. This study was conducted to characterize the woody flora of Hann Park and establish the taxonomic, biological and chorological spectra. The data were collected from December 2017 to April 2018 following a roving inventory. The work allowed to list 121 woody species distributed in 100 genera and 38 families. Of these species, 8 were not cited in the Senegalese flora and 11 were partially protected by the Senegalese forestry code. The family with the highest species richness was Fabaceae with 23.14% of the flora. The overall analysis of the biological spectrum showed a large dominance of mesophanerophytes (48.28%) followed by microphanerophytes (37.19%). Moreover, the chorological analysis revealed that afrotropical (42.98%) and pantropical species (23.14%) were the most important. The present study allowed pointing out the flora structure of woody flora in the Hann Park which is necessary for improving management of phytodiversity.
This work is a contribution to a better knowledge of the species of the genus Prosopis. It proposes specifically, to highlight the similarities and dissimilarities between Prosopis juliflora and P. chilensis. To achieve the results, observations and measurements were made on the different organs of the species. The comparison of the data obtained shows that the discriminating features are the spines which are more frequent on the branches of P. chilensis and rare on those of Prosopis juliflora. The distinguishing traits are related to the inflorescence of P. juliflora which is longer and denser than that of Prosopis chilensis. The top of the pod (beak) is more tapered in P. juliflora. This work allowed the identification of the two species of the genus Prosopis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
