The present study deals with the phytosociological analysis of the selected graveyards of Upper Swat. Seven conserved graveyards were sampled and various ecological attributes were obtained. Based on IVI seven different communities were identified, representing 54 families and 95 species. Out of these 95 species 50 species were herbs, 25 shrubs and 20 were trees respectively. The findings show that the vegetation of the selected graveyards is comparatively less disturbed and the floristic composition is different from elsewhere due to religious sanctities. Therefore, it is recommended that these natural forests should be conserved by government agencies involving local communities.
