DistributionThe centre of the range of Tugay vegetation is the Tarim Basin in north-western China, where the Tarim Huyanglin nature reserve in the middle reaches of the Tarim River holds the largest areas of intact Tugay forests, with a 1993 estimate of about 61% of the total. The Central Asian countries hold another 31%, with smaller areas remaining in the Middle East and Pakistan.[2] Tugais also occur in the Caucasus.[3] VegetationClose to rivers and where groundwater levels are shallow, the vegetation is usually dominated by poplars (especially Populus euphratica)[3] and willows such as Salix songarica. Where the forest has been disturbed, other species such as tamarisk, sea-buckthorn and oleaster will grow. Herbaceous plants include reeds, common spike rush, jointleaf rush, fleabane, cocklebur and thorn apple. Grass tugai vegetation is dominated by Phragmites australis, Calamagrostis and Typha.[1] Where the groundwater is deeper, oaks and elms will dominate.[4] The principle causes for the loss of tugai vegetation include dam construction, tree cutting, grazing, and agriculture.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Treshkin,|first1=S.Y.|last2=Kamalov|first2=S.K.|last3=Bachiev|first3=A.|last4=Mamutov|first4=N.|last5=Gladishev|first5=A.I.|last6=Aimbetov|first6=I.|title=Present status of the tugai forets in the lower Amu-Dar’ya Basin and problems of their protection and restoration.
