Abstract

In order to fully understand the current status of wild vascular plant resources in the Xinjiang Xitianshan National Nature Reserve and provide basic data for subsequent work, it is necessary to revise and update the list of wild vascular plants in the Xinjiang Xitianshan National Nature Reserve. Based on previous research, through literature collection, specimen study, field investigation and the latest classification research results, the list of wild vascular plants in the Western Tianshan National Nature Reserve of Xinjiang has been updated.
