Abstract

In this study, the Artemisia santonicum L.(facultative halophyte plant) community and soil peculiarity of Ereğli-Karaman had been analyzed based on the minimal area approach. Of the samples collected from the research area between the years 1995-1996 and 2012-2013, 100 plants were evaluated, and uncommon and endemic taxa were identified. The number of endemic taxa within the study area is 15. The study area is located in the southeast of Central Anatolia covered with alkaline soils. The Artemisia santonicum community is under the control of very cold and arid Mediterranean climate. Relations between the ecologial properties (such as soil properties and climate) and plant cover are examined. Based on the results of floral biodiversity and ecological properties were discussed. Results showed that, on the distribution of vegetation are important factors, respectively; climatic, edaphic, anthropogenic. In terms of biodiversity conservation of these areas it is very important furthermore the protection of these areas showed that very necessary.
