Abstract

This study is the first documentation to be made of the vegetation and flora of the Sultan Qaboos Public Park & Nature Reserve in Oman (Muscat area). The characteristic vegetation units are described by means of a vegetation map (1:10,000) and selected transects. In the final chapter, attention is called to the special importance of the Nature Reserve and proposals are made for its future conservation. An appendix contains a list of the phanerogamic taxa which have been found there up to now.
