A floristic study documents all the plant species found within a specific geographical area. Some ambitious and large-scale floristic projects involve development of keys, detailed descriptions, and illustrations of the plants, while some may produce a simple list of species found in an area. Firozabad is a very interesting place with regard to the scientific as well as geographical point of view. A concise and diagnostic description has been given, which includes more important characters necessary for identification. To bring accuracy in description, measurements and other characters have been provided. Habit, Habitat, abundance, ecological aspects and other prominent morphological characters have been mentioned after the description. Field notes are followed by flowering and fruiting periods. Vernacular names have been given in all those cases where they could be ascertained properly.
