Abstract: 6390 species of native seed plants (belonging to 1279 genera in 207 families) in the floristic region of Central China were reported here. The statistics and comparatively intensive analysis at different levels, as familiar, generic, and specific respectively were given. Based on the statistics, the results show that both temperate and tropical distribution types are acounted for considerable proportion of the total, but the former is a little more important than the later. The North Temperate, the E. Asian (especially Chinese) endemics.and E. Asia-N. America disjuncted patterns are more concentrated in this area.
