      </title>
      <p id="_paragraph-3">Global estimates suggest that more than a third of wild plants are threatened with extinction [1], either due to climate change or invasive plants that threaten 55%of local plant communities and unsustainable overuse commercial, industrial, therapeutic, overgrazing ,urban sprawl or ill–considered land use, etc. therefore protecting important areas for plant diversity is an essential element of plant conservation activities in all countries as a basis for providing ecosystem services and conserving biodiversity that supports sustainable livelihoods. Conserving wild plants on the basis of local (in situ) is the most successful way to preserve plant diversity and protect it from the effects of climate change and other factors [2],and identifying rare highly rare and endangered species contributes to their assessment, protection, conservation and preservation of their genetic resources, and ensuring optimal investment in this vital and important aspect of biodiversity [3].</p>

        <p id="_paragraph-13">The various field trips were carried out at the rate of three field trips per month for almost every study area at regular times as much as possible, as the samples were photographed and collected in clear weather (not windy or rainy), and they were carefully selected to be free from diseases and fungal infections.</p>

        <p id="_paragraph-16">The samples were pressed after being shaken and washed from the dust between newspapers and regular cardboard, and packed between the wooden presses, taking into account opening them and moving them daily until they dried. Then, they were transferred to the herbaceous-size cardboard and fixed with paper tape, and their information patch was pasted on the lower right side of the sample. Written on it are the sample number, the local name, the area and place of collection, the name of the collector or collectors, and the date of collection[4]</p>

        <p id="_paragraph-27">The results of the botanical survey of the study area during the research period showed that these plants are rarly distributed in terms of the number of samples collected and their distribution areas, this may be attributed to climate changes such as high temperatures, drought,low rainfall or urban expansion at the expense of pastures and agricultural lands,Given the nutritional, therapeutic, medicinal, fodder and other local uses of these plants ,so its necessary to continue botanical surveys for the purposes of preserving and sustaining them, as well as sustaining the vegetation cover and biodiversity [20].</p>

      <p id="paragraph-5cf4c3944afaf1399003f623e151d21a">This study documented 20 rare and endangered dicotyledonous plant species in Diyala Province, classified into 19 genera and 10 families, with varied ecological and socio-economic roles ranging from food and medicine to fodder and industry. The restricted distribution and low abundance of these species underscore the severe pressures posed by drought, declining rainfall, and anthropogenic activities such as urban expansion and overgrazing. These findings highlight the urgent need for conservation strategies that prioritize in situ preservation, sustainable land use, and integration of traditional ecological knowledge to safeguard local biodiversity. Moreover, the results provide a foundational dataset for policymakers and conservationists seeking to design biodiversity management programs in Iraq. Further research should explore genetic diversity, climate resilience, and community-based conservation approaches to ensure the long-term sustainability of these valuable plant resources.</p>
