Classification of Endemic Plants and Priority Conservation Areas in Küre Mountains National Park (Kastamonu Section)

Abstract

Kastamonu section of Küre Mountains National Park has extraordinary biologic plant diversity. Especially karstic rocky areas and canyons on the forest belt have endemic richness. In this study conducted in Küre Mountains National Park which has the distribution of 1000 taxa, it was determined 40 endemic taxa. By taking into consideration of the number of endemic plants, population density and threat factors, the priority conservation areas in the National Park are divided into two subclasses. 1st level important areas: Horma Canyon, Ilıca Waterfall, Valla Canyon; 2nd level important areas: Çatak Canyon, Armutluçayırı, Kokurdan Alm and Loc Valley. This classification will be a guide for the recreational activities in the future by revealing the habitats of endemic plants and their spread. This study also shows the IUCN criteria, population density and conservation suggestions for the endemic plants spread in the area.
