The species code has been prepared using the first letter of the species, hereafter this species code has been used throughout the manuscript. The species name and family name has been standardized through IUCN species list and the World Flora Online⁷⁵. The species occurrence point data has been collected from different sources like the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) database and literature. The GPS survey was carried out to collect the maximum possible occurrence data from the field. The information about the common local habitat of the selected species was confirmed through the local people and the literature.
