Wadi Kharit is a major drainage system dissecting
the southern part of the eastern desert of Egypt
in an east-west orientation. Due to the volcanic
nature of the rocks it originates at, the eluviation
of soil along its course is distinguished into three
main recognizable soil types. Three plant communities
recognized in the wadi, apparently highly
related to its edaphic characteristics, are identified
for the first time in the eastern desert, The floristic composition of such communities are quite rich in both variety of species as well their abundance values. Little resemblance exists between such communities and other communities previously
identified in northern wadies of this desert, as
revealed frOm data obtained in previous studies in
this series as well as those of other investigators.
