Summary:

North Asia, the Asian portion of the Russian Federation, covering over 13 million square kilometers, constitutes 77% of Russia’s territory and 30% of Asia’s. The study of its flora, which began in the 18th century, has yielded over 300 Russian-language publications on the flora of different regions of North Asia, posing language barriers for global researchers. In the Big Data Era, international collaboration can break these barriers, integrating North Asia’s plant data into wider Asian and Eurasian databases. This is vital for studying vascular plant origins, evolution, and conservation.This book, part of the “Mapping Asia Plants” project, presents an integrated checklist of North Asia’s vascular plants. Organized by the 27 administrative divisions of Asian Russia, it compiles floristic data into a list that includes species, subspecies, varieties, and selected synonyms, accounting for 162 families, 1151 genera, 6459 species, 487 subspecies, and 176 varieties. This work offers a high-quality and essential reference for worldwide botanical researchers, herbarium curators, professionals, and enthusiasts.
