Abstract
A number of exotic plants occur in the dry zone of central Burma. The annual rainfall of this area is only 25–35 in. in one monsoon, and the general vegetation is predominantly xerophytic—such as thorny shrubs, succulent species of Euphorbia and ephemerals. Some of these foreign plants are so well established that they could easily be mistaken for indigenous plants.
