摘要
This study was carried out to collect and compile the information on plant species in Southeast Asian tropical forests and to provide them as a useful tool for the conservation of plant biodiversity. Tropical plant guidebook entitled "Flowering Plants and Ferns of Mt Makiling "was published. 337 taxa including 293 flowering plants and 44 ferns that are living in Mt. Makiling and nearby areas of the Philippines were included in this book. "ASEAN Tropical Plant Database" was developed and served through the homepage of National Institute of Environmental Research in Korea (http://tropicalplant.nier.go.kr). 573 endemic or introduced plant species living in Southeast Asian tropical forests were listed in this database. All of the data on plant species included in the guidebook and database were obtained from the field study and literature survey. More than 1,000 and 1,500 photos taken from the field survey were also printed on the book and database, respectively.
