摘要

Corallocarpus conocarpus (Dalz. & Gibs.) C.B. Clarke is a rare species found in natural habitats and agricultural fields with a highly restricted distribution in India. It remains poorly explored and has been recorded only from limited localities of Gujarat. Field surveys conducted during the monsoon season provide favourable conditions for observing the species allowing clear identification of both vegetative and reproductive structures. Based on field observations and previous reports, the species is mainly distributed across selected regions of Gujarat. Ethnobotanically, various parts of the plant are traditionally used to treat ailments and are also consumed as a vegetable in some areas of the state. Its primary distribution is limited to four main regions within Gujarat. The present study focuses on documenting the species’ frequency, abundance, distribution range, taxonomic traits and major threats contributing to its population decline in these regions.
