An Overview of the Plant Diversity of Azerbaijan

  • First Online:
Biodiversity, Conservation and Sustainability in Asia

Abstract

Azerbaijan is an Eurasian country in the Caucasian region, located in the Caspian Sea basin at the intersection of Europe and Central Asia in the South Caucasus, with an area of 86.600 km2; 11.5% being forests, 1.6% water basin, 50% cultivated lands, including 27% pastures, and 36.9% farms. Nearly 5.000 taxa (including cultivated flora) have been recorded in the “Flora of Azerbaijan” in 2016. The information on the state of rare species has been pooled up. Almost 20% of the flora needs protection, 140 being severely threatened; these include 5 categories: (1) belavers are endangered, 22 species; (2) rare species in smaller areas, 65 species; (3) gradually shrinking own area species, 45 species; (4) rarely species with little knowledge about them, 18. Rare species restored as a result of additional plantings kept in naturally (five species). Some species (16 species) can be assigned to several categories. Rare plants are more in Talysh and Nakhchivan: 35–40 species in the Greater and Lesser Caucasus regions, 16 species in Absheron and over 14 in the Kur-Araz lowland. Currently 800 taxa in the Flora of Azerbaijan need protection.
