Abstract: The occurrence of mesic savanna vegetation outlier such as savanna in a forest zone are rare and isolated. One of such is located at Okhuesan Esan South East Local Government Area of Edo State. In the study, the species composition and diversity were recorded and soil analysis was done. The soil component and its properties from the study site was compared with that of a forested region to know if edaphic factor has a impact in the species composition of the area of study. A check list of the plant species was documented and they were catalogued according to their families, habit and life form. Soil samples were collected at a depth of 5–10 cm, 10–20 cm, 20–30 cm, and 30–50 cm. A statistical test was performed on the savanna and a forested site using their soil nutrient composition as a criteria. The t-test was approximately -0.7175 and the p-value was approximately 0.4935, this shows that there is no significant difference between both sites. The result for this survey showed a total of 120 plant species belonging to 51 families and 89 Genera. Fabaceae have the highest number of species 12 followed by poaceae with 11 species, Euphorbiaceae with 9 species, Asteraceae 6 and Apocynaceae 5 species while Amaranthaceae, Commelinaceae and Cyperaceae had 4, 3 and 4 species respectively. Based on the plant habit classification, 40 species (33.3%) were herbs, 11 (9.17%) Grasses, 4 (3.33%) sedge species, 4 (3.33%) vine species, 33 tree species (27.5%) and 27 shrubs (22.5%).
