A total of 395 samples of vascular plants were collected belonging to 172 genera, 69 families, and 225 species. They were identified and archived in the herbarium of Shiraz University. Dicotyledon plants with 57 families, 142 genera, and 187 species were the most diverse group, followed by monocots with 8 families, 25 genera, and 34 species. Pteridophytes with 3 families, 3 genera, and 3 species and Gymnosperms with 1 family, 1 genus, and 1 species were present in the region. The richest genera in terms of the number of species were Asteraceae (42 species), Fabaceae (23 species), and Poaceae (13 species). The most diverse species in the vegetation of the region were Convolvulus, Plantago, and Trifolium (each with 5 species), and Allium (with 4 species). In terms of chorology, most plants belonged to the Irano-Turanian region. Therophytes were the dominant life form in the area. The most effective ecological factors in the distribution of plants in the area were climatic, topographical, and biological factors. https://tbj.ui.ac.ir/article_24925_ae44676ac0383e3e69ed7fc19c35c632.pdf
