Checklist of wild tracheophyte in Jilin Province

doi:10.17520/biods.2025120

Abstract

Abstract:

Background & Aim: A high-quality checklist is essential for plant taxonomy, ecology, geography, and resource utilization studies. However, the checklist for Jilin Province has remained largely unrevised since the 1980s, which has seriously impeded related research. This paper attempts to obtain a credible province-wide checklist and county-level plant distribution data.

Methods: The TNRS (Taxonomic Name Resolution) was used to correct the spelling of scientific names. And the scientific name adopted the viewpoints in the Catalogue of Life China (2024). The checklist mainly refered to documents, i.e. Catalogue of Life China (2024), Key of Distribution Atlas of Northeast China Plant, 2nd edn, Flora of Jilin Province (Vols. 1-2), Atlas of Medicinal Plant Resource in the Northeast China, Distribution Atlas of Northeast China Plant, Flora Plantarum Herbacearum Chinae Boreali-Orientalis, Illustrated Flora of Northeast China, some articles and specimen data (from National Specimen Information Infrastructure (NSII), Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), NEFI, IFP) to locate the species distribution in county-level divisions.

Results: The checklist included 2,467 species (including 67 subspecies and 200 varieties) of tracheophyte in Jilin Province, belonging to 142 families and 728 genera, with voucher specimens available for 1,940 species. Among them, there are 21 lycophytes (2 families, 6 genera), 98 ferns (16 families, 40 genera; including 2 subspecies and 5 varieties), 21 gymnosperms (4 families, 9 genera; including 6 varieties), and 2,327 angiosperms (120 families, 673 genera; including 65 subspecies and 189 varieties). The most species-rich families are Asteraceae (75 genera, 260 species, including 7 subspecies and 9 varieties), Poaceae (65 genera, 182 species, including 12 subspecies and 11 varieties), Cyperaceae (14 genera, 148 species, including 1 subspecies and 11 varieties), Rosaceae (31 genera, 127 species, including 24 varieties), and Ranunculaceae (18 genera, 125 species, including 1 subspecies and 24 varieties). Other records are supported by reliable data. This checklist showed remarkable differences in species distribution among counties in Jilin Province. About 7 percent of 60 counties have more than 1,000 species, and the county-level distribution data were seriously imbalance.

Conclusion: The provincial checklist is reliable, but the quality of county-level distribution data needs to be significantly improved.

Key words: Jilin Province, tracheophyte, plant taxonomy, biodiversity, checklist
