The study sought to estimate the relative abundance and uses of wild tree species in Ukohol community. Six transects were laid at a range of 500m within a 5km baseline through fallowlands in the community. On each transect, 4 plots of 50m x 50m were marked and the total number of each species in the plots was counted and recorded. A semi-structured questionnaire was also administered to 40 respondents in four out of six villages in the study area to obtain information on uses of the tree species. A total of 38 plant species from 17 families were recorded. The Dbh classes in the study area ranged between less than 20cm to below 80cm. The tree species in the community were used for food, medicines, crafts, local construction materials, fuelwood and charcoal making. Plants with multiple uses such as Prosopis africana with a CI of 5.5, Vitellaria paradoxa (4.2) and Burkea africana (3.9) were rated high by respondents. Tree species in the area were less diverse but useful to the people. It is recommended that planting of these species be prioritized to ensure their sustainability in the community.
