This particularly when we risk losing yet another valuable patch of the fast dwindling spread of Western Ghats forests. I am qualified only to comment on the ecological aspects having worked in the Dandeli area during the late 1980's. Such forests are the richest in biodiversity in Uttara Kannada. To base species list on this is unwise. Names of species are erroneous, sometimes outdated and even non-existent in reality.
Plant names are full of spelling and classification errors.
List of fishes of River Kali is dubious . There are not more than 150 species of birds in the area and the list is copied without acknowledgement . Further, there cannot be many of these species in the study area. Such compilations don't help. Too few butterflies.
