This work relied mainly on field surveys and personal contact with the people olderly of the region who were familiar with the plant species by their local names and their different uses. The ethnobotanical survey gave an idea about the vegetation cover, as the results included 108 plant species belonging to; 78 genera and 42 families. Ten varieties for Phoenix dactylifera L. and 8 varieties for Mangifera indica. Twenty-five of these species belong to monocotyledonous plants, and the rest of the species (83 species) belong to dicotyledonous plants. In terms of plant habitat, the species varied between trees, shrubs, and herbs. Where about 47 trees, 29 shrubs and 32 herbs were found. The family with the largest representation in plant species was the Fabaceae (15 species). As for the use of plants, most of them were used as food and medicine, some of them for various handicrafts or other uses.
