Abstract

New records for 16 species, 10 genera and one family are reported for the flora of the Llullaillaco National Park (Region of Antofagasta) in northern Chile. The total known flora of this National Park is thus increased to 126 species, comprising 74 genera and 31 families. The number of endemic species in Llullaillaco National Park is increased to 21, indicating that the incidence of endemics (16.6% of its flora) is one of the highest found for a national park in the Chilean Andes. We also include nomenclature comments on some species previously reported in other studies.
