The different tools used for maintaining biodiversity records are as follows: 

1. Flora: It is the plant life occurring in a particular area at a particular time. 

2. Monograph: It describes any one selected biological group. 

3. Manual: It provides information and keys about identification of species found in a particular area.

(a) Endemic flora: 

Albizia sikharamensis (Mimosaceae), Argvreia arakuensis (Convolvulaceae), Arundinella setosa (Poaceae), Acacia diadenia (Mimosaceae), Citrus assamensis (Rutaceae), Magnolia bailloni (Magnoliaceae), etc.

(b) Endemic fauna:

Bare Bellied Hedgehog (Paraechinus nudiventris), Andaman Shrew (Crocidura andamanensis), Aruanchal Macaque (Macaca munzala), Car Nicobar Rat (Rattus palmarum), Peter’s Tube-nosed Bat (Harpiola grisea) etc.

Living characters:

1. Presence of nucleic acid and protein. 

2. Capable of mutation. 

3. Ability to multiply within living cells. 

4. Able to infect and cause diseases in living beings. 

5. Show irritability. 6. Host – specific.

Non – living characters:

1. Can be crystallized. 

2. Absence of metabolism. 

3. Inactive outside the host. 

4. Do not show functional autonomy, 

5. Energy producing enzyme system is absent.

(c) Crystallized

1.Glucose: It is used in respiration to release energy for use by the plant’s cells

2.Oxygen: Its major use is in steel production, for example in the Bessemer process.
