Abstract

Present paper deals with the present status of Orchid diversity resources in Dibrugarh District of Assam of North East India. A total of 113 Orchid species under 50 genera have been recorded from the regions. Of them, 29 species with 17 genera are terrestrial and the rest 84 species with 33 genera are epiphytic. This attempt is the first step to correct taxonomic identification and assessment to workout currently accepted botanical names, Voucher specimen, habitat, phenology and locality of Orchid species occurring in Dibrugarh District of Assam of North East India.
