The Research on Plant Diversity of Park Greenbelt of Beijing City

It is very important to protect the urban biodiversity. Urban parks are the main body of urban greenbelt system, which also are the place that biodiversity highest centralized in city. It can provide the basic data for urban biodiversity conservation by the research on the plant diversity of park greenbelt in urban.

The results showed that there were 393 plants species, which belonged to 251 genera and 90 families in Beijing parks. Among them, 281 species were Beijing native plants, which were accounted for 71.50% of total plants species; 62 species were introduced from other regions of China, 15.78% of total parks plants; and 50 species were introduced from foreign countries, 12.72% of total plants.
