Abstract	This study investigates the herbaceous diversity of the Ramgarh Beed area in the Shekhawati region of Rajasthan, using the quadrat method from 2018 to 2022. A total of 120 herbaceous species were recorded and analyzed for species density, frequency, abundance and ecological indices. Argemonemexicana exhibited the highest density (4.2) and abundance (4.67), while Crotalaria medicaginea showed the lowest density (0.1). The Shannon-Weaver diversity index (H') was 4.61, indicating moderate biodiversity, with a Simpson dominance index (D) of 0.011 and species evenness (e) of 0.962. The findings highlight a stable and diverse herbaceous community, emphasizing the need for conservation efforts to maintain ecological integrity.
