Abstract

The diversity of plant communities in two extreme ecological areas namely: Ardisols (El-Mekhely) and salt affected soil (Sabkha-Benghazi) was studied during the rain season. The Ardisols was characterized by low electrical conductivity, and total soluble salts as well as little water availability in comparison to salt affected soils. About xerophytes, ten species were adapted in Ardisols of which: Zilla spinos, Lycium euroeabaeum, Carrichtera malacoide, Aizoon hispunieum, Emax spinosus, Sisymbrium irio, Fagonia cretica, Capparis spinosa, Euphorbia carnuta. On the other hand, twelve species were adapted in salt affected soils, six of them belonging to family Chenopodiaceae; Halocnemun strobilaceum, Arthronemon glancum, Atriplex glancum, Halopopli amplexicaulics, Salicornia fruticosa, Suaeda pruinosa, well known family for its capacity as a tolerance to salt environments. Moreever, the rest families represented as one species each.
