In plant Genetics: The Shannon diversity index (H) is commonly used to characterize species diversity in a population. How about the Shannon’s information index (SH)?
Sir, I don't know about the Shannon’s information index (SH). However the following questions and answers can give give you few information about diversity index specially the answer of using R program with confidence interval.

Thank you.
Shannon's information is entropy, the average rate at which information is produced by a stochastic source of data. Shannon Index measures diversity but logarithm of true diversity gives the corresponding entropy or information
Thank you Tanvir Ahmed for mentioning relevant link with writing your opinion.
What is the Range of Shannons information index and above/below what value we can say that it is high/low
