Photographs are also provided for its easy identification in the field. Overexploitation, narrow extent of occurrence, small area of occupancy, severe fragmentation of population, very low regeneration, lack of local people knowledge, revealed that Adansonia digitata L. is facing severe conservation threat and extinction risk. It would be categorized for endangered category by ensuring the habitat conservation, of this important tree species. He is grateful and thankful to Dr. V. Singh, Emeritus Scientist & Ex. Add. Director, Botanical Survey of India, Arid Zone Regional Centre, Jodhpur for valuable suggestions for this study. He is equally grateful to the Dr. S. L.
