This book is not a complete account of the flora of West Bengal as the political and the physical configuration of the then Bengal province has been changed enormously. Not only that a lot of new introduction has been taken place which also enriched the floristic account of present West Bengal state, so to accommodate all these things within a single folder the present effort has been taken into account to statistically analysis the flora of the West Bengal state.
