Abstract

Floristic Characteristics of Nemrut Dagi National Park and its surroundings are given and the vascular plant species growing there are documented. Nemrut Dagi National Park is situated on the Southeast Taurus mountain range and is in the Iran-Turanian phytogeographical region. The research was carried out between 2010 and 2013. Two thousand five hundred plant specimens were collected from the area. At the end of the study, 777 vascular plant species and 403 genera belonging to 88 families were identified: 118 taxa (15,19%) are endemic to Turkey. The phytogeographic elements are represented in the study area as follows: Irano-Turanian 271 (34,9%), Mediterranean 52 (6,7%), E. Mediterranenen 44 (5,7%), Euro-Siberian 22 (2,8%), Euxin 2 (0,3%) and Unknown 386 (49,7%).
