The present paper focuses on assessment of floral diversity of Bagdara wildlife sanctuary, located in Madhya Pradesh. Utilizing a nested sampling design across 14 forest beats, data collection was carried out followed by the rigorous protocols defined by the National Tiger Conservation Authority. A total of 84 plots of 15m radius were laid along 14 transect lines for vegetation data collection. Additionally, five meter and one meter radius subplots were laid within the main plot to evaluate the status of shrub, herb and grasses. A comprehensive list of plants with background information, such as family, habit, regional name and conservation status was prepared. A total of 167 angiosperm species were documented, representing 141 genera and 70 families, with dominant life forms including trees, shrubs, herbs and grasses. Dicotyledons constituted the majority, emphasizing the sanctuary's richness in woody species. Key families, such as Poaceae, Fabaceae, Malvaceae, Moraceae and Asteraceae contributed significantly to species diversity. The study also identified conservation concerns, with species like Chloroxylon swietenia and Drosera burmanni classified under threatened categories underlining the sanctuary's conservation significance. A total number of 79 species are reported in the present work under various threatened categories as per International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
