This article contains a list of the more than 2,200 vascular plant species of Doi Suthep–Pui National Park in Chiang Mai Province, northern Thailand from Maxwell & Elliott (2011:63-154).
Some typical examples are: Bamboos include: Bamboo/deciduous forest supports 38 species of epiphytes, most of which are perennial and 58% of which are evergreen.
such as: The grass most characteristic of the ground flora in bamboo/deciduous forest is: Other common grasses, which also occur in other habitats and are highly combustible during the hot dry season, are: A total of 316 herb species has been recorded in bamboo/deciduous forest, of which 294 are ground herbs.
Some of the most characteristic are evergreen, succulent, vines and creepers in the Asclepiadaceae, such as: There are numerous succulent, evergreen and deciduous Orchidaceae (orchids), such as: 2 deciduous Polypodiaceae (fern) species, both with characteristically distinct growth forms, are also frequently seen: Of the 274 ground herbs which have been recorded, 111 (40%) are annuals.
Some of the more common examples are: Robust, deciduous Poaceae (grasses) dominate and are all very combustible during the hot dry season from March to May.
The most specious groups are the figs (Moraceae, many of which are epiphytes only when young), orchids, and pteridophytes, but the Gesneriaceae and Loranthaceae are also represented.
The evergreen forest has a wide variety of trees, with no dominant species or genera.
Some of the most characteristic ferns in open, fire-damaged place are: Some characteristic ferns in shaded, mostly pristine areas are: Some common dicots are: Common herbaceous monocots are: Parasitic or saprophytic members of the ground flora include several Balanophora species and others: Rare orchids include: On fire-prone, exposed ridges at elevations of about 950–1,800 m, Pinus kesiya grows together with other evergreen forest tree species.
Some species more commonly found with Pinus kesiya than elsewhere, mostly due to the acidic lower pH of the soil, include: Where fires are particularly frequent, plants of deciduous dipterocarp-oak forest spread up into the pine forests at much higher elevations than is typical, including: In such areas, trees of the Fagaceae family are also common, including: Altogether 99 tree species have been recorded, of which only 27 (27%) are deciduous.
Some of the original epiphytic flora has returned to the summit of Doi Pui, such as: Some evergreen herbs which have returned, albeit in diminished populations, include: Deciduous herbs are more common, including: 9 plant species, all of which are rare or down to a few individuals, are entirely restricted to summit areas between 1620 and 1685 m above sea level.
A total of 288 species of ground herbs survives in disturbed areas or secondary growth.
Some of the more common species found at all elevations include: Monocot weeds are also diverse and abundant.
They are robust, evergreen, and very persistent weeds in open, fire-damaged, upland areas, and include: Naturalized woody weeds that often dominate open, disturbed areas are: Secondary growth treelets (36 species) and trees (81 species) are common seen.
