Inventory and Conservation of Wild Flora in Gebel Shayeb El-Banat as a Potential Protected Area, the Red Sea Region, Egypt
The objective of the present study is to assess the vegetation cover in Gebel Shayeb EL-Banat area, the Red Sea, Egypt. During the field study, we identified 33 plant species representing 22 families, which suggests the high ecological importance of the area. Our study should support the decision makers in Egypt in prioritizing areas for conservation, and we highly recommend if this area be considered as a future protected area. The objective of the proposed plan is protect of natural plant diversity and vegetation cover along with its underlying ecological structure and supporting ecosystems processes, and to promote education and recreation and to manage the area in order to perpetuate, in as natural a state as possible; contribute in particular to conservation of wide-ranging species, regional ecological processes and migration routes; manage visitor use for inspirational, educational, cultural and recreational purposes at a level which will not cause significant biological or ecological degradation to the natural resources; take into account the needs of local communities, including subsistence resource use.
