About the Book

This informative work by Asad R. Rahmani and Zafar-Ul Islam explores the rich biodiversity of India, one of the world’s twelve megadiversity countries. The book discusses India’s ten biogeographical regions, highlighting variations in landmass, climate, and species distribution. Special attention is given to the state of Jammu & Kashmir, which lies within the Western Himalayan and Trans-Himalayan regions and forms an important ecological transition zone. Positioned at the intersection of the temperate Palaearctic and tropical Oriental biogeographic realms, the region supports a remarkable variety of flora and fauna. This book serves as a valuable resource for students, researchers, and nature enthusiasts interested in Indian biodiversity and conservation.
