Forest plant species inventory of Lama classified forest
The dataset is about the forest plant species inventory in the Lama Forest (South Benin). Data are collected in plots of a 100*100 meter size. The forest owes its name to the “Lama depression”, a notch in the sedimentary basin of southern Benin, which is exposed from the marls and clays of the Eocene and in which vertisols develop. It extends over 16,250 hectares, divided between the departments of the Atlantic (9,750 ha in Toffo) and Zou (6,500 ha in Zogbodomey). Between 1946 and 1986, human activity destroyed a large part of the natural forest by clearing and bushfires, then a management plan made it possible to preserve approximately 4,759 ha which now constitutes the "central core" ( CN). Arranged around this nucleus, new plantations must make it possible to protect it, while covering the needs for construction and heating wood. The forest is subject to a four-season subequatorial climate, with irregular rainfall (1,100 mm per year on average). Humidity remains very high in the dry season and night fog persists until late in the morning2. The altitude is 60 m on average3.

Inventory Pobè forest in South East of Benin
Our study was carried out in the Pobè forest (6°57’ and 6°58’ North latitude, 2°39’ and 2°40’ East longitude). This research aims at a better knowledge of the forest in order to contribute to its sustainable management. To achieve this goal we set 30 plots of 0.25 ha following a systematic sample of rectangular stitches measuring 100 x 200m, in the forest. In each plot, we measured dendrometric parameters such as diameter at 1.3m above the soil and the total height of the trees. Also, the regeneration of valuable species has been counted in 3 squares plots of 100 m2 in each main plot.

Contribution à la gestion durable des forêts : Caractéristiques écologiques et structurales de la forêt naturelle d’Akpè (Lama) au Sud du Bénin.
La forêt naturelle d’Akpè occupant la partie Sud du Noyau central de la Lama a servi de cadre pour nos travaux de recherches. Elle est à cheval sur l’arrondissement de Coussi département du Zou, et l’arrondissement de Houegbo département de l’atlantique et s’étend entre 6°55' et 7°00' de latitude Nord et entre 2°4' et 2°12' de longitude Est. L’objectif global de ce travail est de contribuer à la gestion durable de la forêt naturelle d’Akpè en faisant ressortir ses caractéristiques structurales, écologiques et modes de gestion pour un aménagement réussi. Pour atteindre cet objectif, la méthode d’étude phytosociologique de la végétation spontanée de la forêt a été utilisée dans son approche synusiale pour identifier et caractériser les stations forestières. Cette approche comprend deux étapes fortement imbriquées à savoir l’étape synusiologique et l’étape phytocoenologique. Au terme de l’étape synusiologique, vingt-trois (23) synusies ont été identifiées et décrites. Au nombre de ces synusies, nous avons quatre annuelles, quatre vivaces basses, trois herbacées vivaces basses, trois herbacées vivaces hautes, quatre arbustives et cinq arborescentes. Dans l’étape phytocoenologique, sur la base des relations spatio-temporelles des synusies, celles-ci ont été intégrées en six (6) phytocoenoses :  la phytocoenose pionnière à Chromolaena odorata dont la présence est liée au seul facteur photique,  la phytocoenose arborescente à Lonchocarpus sericeus et Spondias mombin une forêt secondaire de la Lama qui colonise les substrats argileux gris clair,  la phytocoenose Lonchocarpus sericeus et Albizia zygia, une forêt secondaire de la Lama observée sur des versants et sur des substrats argileux gris clairs,  la phytocoenose arborescente à Lonchocarpus sericeus et Anogeissus leiocarpa qui est comme la précédente un groupement caractéristique de la forêt secondaire de la Lama retrouvée en bas et à mi-pente sur des vertisols argileux gris sombre,  la phytocoenose arborescente à Lonchocarpus sericeus et Ceiba pentandra un des groupements caractéristiques de la forêt secondaire de la Lama qui a un tempérament héliophile, colonise les vertisols argileux gris sombres, et  la phytocoenose arborescente à Diospyros mespiliformis et Dialium guineense observée sur des vertisols argileux gris sombres mal drainés et inondables en saison pluvieuse où règne un microclimat particulier. Elle a été observée en bas et à mi-pente. L’étude synécologique de ces différentes phytocoenoses nous a permis de faire des propositions d’aménagement dans le respect des prescriptions générales du plan directeur d’aménagement et de gestion du noyau centrale de la Lama du Noyau Central.

"A systematic sampling of the Dogo-Kétou forest was carried out. This technique allow to collect biodiversity data in the forest. It's a good technique in the forest because it has enormous advantages such as: Easier localization of sounding points allowing quick identification; cheaper travel, The regular distribution of points over the entire forest. This provides more information per unit cost compared to random sampling (Rondeux, 1999) The sampling device to be used is a square mesh of 200 m x 200 m, i.e. one sampling point over 4 hectares. The spaces were installed at a minimum distance of 50 m from the edge of the furthest track. close to avoid edge effects. Each plot will have an area of ​​one hectare subdivided into two sub-plots of 0.5 ha. The sampling area of ​​one ha makes it possible to integrate the maximum of biodiversity per plot."

Inventory of the orchid plants species in the Biosphere Reserve of Pendjari and surround areas in North West Benin
The effectiveness of the protected areas to guarantee future conservation of several plant species remains questionable. This study was carried out in the Biosphere Reserve of Pendjari (BRP) and surrounding unprotected areas to assess the efficiency of the reserve to conserve orchids. The vegetation map of the reserve was used to identify the three main vegetation types (savannas, woodlands and gallery forests). Both protected and unprotected areas were included in the study. In each vegetation type, points were randomly selected to serve as the starting point of a transect. In total, 65 transects of each at least 3 km long, were explored for the presence of orchid species. Three-person teams were used to intensively survey the trees and the vegetation on the ground for the presence of epiphytic and terrestrial orchids. One team member monitored the compass bearing of the transect, and the other two members scanned the vegetation for orchids. The presence of orchid species was confirmed by two team members. Sample plots were selected along the transects, based on the presence of orchid species. Rectangular plots (10 m x 50 m) were sampled in gallery forests (due to the linear shape of the gallery forests) and Square plots (30 m x 30 m) in savannas, woodlands and fallows. At least 25 plots were sampled per vegetation type, and 90 plots in total (with 52 plots in protected areas and 38 in unprotected areas). The species and number of individuals of all orchid species (terrestrial and epiphytic) and the host trees of epiphytic orchids were recorded within each plot. The dominant plant species of tree and shrub layers were recorded. Simultaneously, field data on environmental variables were collected. These included the vegetation type, vegetation cover, soil texture, and the presence of rocks or stones. Signs of human disturbance, including agriculture, grazing, tree cutting and pruning, were also collected within the plots of unprotected areas. Herbarium specimens of all recorded orchid species were prepared and identified with the National flora and at the National Herbarium of Benin Republic. Only three epiphytic orchids (Calyptrochilum christyanum, Cyrtorchis arcuata and Plectrelminthus caudatus) were recorded and all in gallery forest of unprotected areas. Indeed, 67% and 58% of the orchid species were respectively only recorded in unprotected areas and gallery forest. There was no significant difference between the density of all recorded orchids in protected and unprotected areas. The conservation status of the studied zone had a significant effect on the densities of Nervilia kotschyi and Eulophia guineensis (p = 1.08e-06). This first effort to compile a reference list of the orchid species of the BRP showed that some orchid species were well represented within the protected area, but all of the epiphytic orchids were recorded from unprotected areas. A conservation gap can be assumed to exist for most epiphytic orchids recorded in the gallery forests of unprotected areas. Our results highlighted the need to redefine protective management strategies for orchid species in the BRP.
