Samenvatting

The aim of the present study is to update the checklist of vascular plants endemic to
Mongolia using previous checklists, publications, herbarium collections, and field observations. The
revised checklist includes 102 endemic taxa (95 species, five subspecies, and two nothospecies) from
43 genera and 19 families. The majority of endemic taxa were distributed in western and central
Mongolia, and high endemic species richness was identified in four phytogeographical regions,
namely Mongolian Altai, Khangai, Dzungarian Gobi, and Gobi Altai, which harbor 49, 27, 20, and
16 endemic taxa, respectively. For each endemic taxon, we compiled information about growth form,
conservation status (if already assessed), phytogeographical distribution, and voucher specimens.
Data on each taxon’s type specimen were also collected, and the majority of the type specimens were
accessioned at the LE (58 taxa), MW (20 taxa), and UBA (7 taxa) herbaria.
