Dziiko Valley : a Plea for Conservation

Abstract

Dziiko Valley is situated on the border of Nagaland and Manipur States. Its flora is diverse and unique which gives and impression at first sight of the well know 'Valley of FloWers' in the Garhwal Himalaya. The nature's gift of blue and white Anemone yellow and white Primula, yellow Caltha and even the well known pink lily-the 'Sirol LilY (Lilium mackliniae Sealy) would one day all vanish if the present trend of biotic interference goes on. Hence, immediate conservation of the Dziiko Valley is necessary.
