Abstract

Asah Waterfall which is situated in Tioman Island Pahang Peninsular Malaysia is one of the interesting area to be explored especially in the interest of flora diversity. The Programme of Genetic Resource Conservation Management Centre of Genebank and Seeds MARDI was involved in assessing the flora composition collecting plant genetic resources as well providing preliminary plant checklist for this area in April 2016. From this survey a total of 127 species in details of 100 genera from 67 families were identified. Two species of Zingiberaceae from two genera Etlingera and Boesenbergia were inventorized and collected for germplasm collection. There were 14 species of rare and wild edible fruit species that are important for the food security and food sources for the wild animal community recorded.
