ABSTRACT: Intense human pressure and global warming have
caused habitat destruction in these areas and increased the number of
endangered species. These species are endemic to the Nuratau ridge and are
under high human pressure. We found four populations of both species in the
Nuratau ridge. For each population we measured plant density and determined
population maturity and ontogenetic spectrum. We also described the plant
community where each population grew. At all sites population density was low,
with most populations being classified as mature with centred ontogenetic
structure.
