The 2018 International Biodiversity Congress (IBC 2018) focused on the theme ‘Biodiversity for ecological civilization’ through the philosophy of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’. Over 800 delegates from India and abroad attended the event. The congress was inaugurated by the Chief Minister of Sikkim, Pawan Kumar Chamling, who stressed the need for protecting the Himalayan biodiversity hotspots and suggested an organic India mission by 2050. The event hosted six plenary, ten technical and three poster sessions under six themes. In total, 27 invited plenary lectures were delivered by eminent scholars and 92 papers were presented by the delegates.Full Text

The northwestern Himalayan region of India is endowed with rich floral diversity and natural species variation, especially in trees such as fir and spruce. In 2019, forest surveys conducted at Har-ke-Dun valley of Govind National Park (GNP), Uttarakhand, India, revealed an interesting observation of survivability and adaptability of cedar (Cedrus deodara, viz. deodar) on Picea smithiana which was recorded (Figure 1). Perhaps, the evolutionary and ecological forces describe it as a natural disjunction. The surveyed forest area is on a steep slope (65°) dominated by cedar and P. smithiana (geospatial data: lat. 31°05′58.4″; long. 78°17′31.0″ and altitude 2240 m amsl). Picea smithiana is a long tree of 20 m height and 0.65 m diameter at breast height (DBH).Full Text
