The Flora of Nepal is the first comprehensive record of all the vascular plants of Nepal. It includes keys and descriptions to assist identification, distribution maps to assess rarity and geographic spread, authoritative scientific names to promote communication, synonyms, to help interpret previous works and supplementary information such as ecology, phenology, ethnobotanical uses and discussion on taxonomic issues. These provide the baseline data needed for environmental studies, climate change modeling, biodiversity inventories, conservation planning and the sustainable use of natural resources.
