Various steps have been taken world over to achieve this goal. Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) is the most important and globally binding effort made towards this. But it is a pitty that even now, our knowledge on biodiversity of this planet is very meagre. Tropical forests which harbour over two-third of world's biodiversity still remain under explored.It is also quite alarming that maximum destruction is happening in such forests. Hence every efforts towards exploration and documentation of biological wealth is highly appreciable because there are very many chances for species to get extinct before they are made known to the world."In recent years Agasthyamala and its environs has attracted attention of various botanists due to high endemism, presence of relic flora and richness in medicinal plant wealth. Considering this uniqueness, Henry et al. (1984) have recommended the area as potential to be conserved as Biosphere Reserve. IUCN (1987) also have identified Agasthyamala and its environs as one among the three important mega centres of diversity within India which needs immediate conservation. (Recently in 2001, the Government of India has declared Agasthyamala as a Biosphere Reserve)". " 889 pp. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 44897
