Flora

Simplified schematic of an island's flora – all its plant species, highlighted in boxes

Flora (pl.: floras or florae) is all the plant life present in a particular region or time, generally the naturally occurring (indigenous) native plants. The corresponding term for animals is fauna, and for fungi, it is funga.[1] Sometimes bacteria and fungi are also referred to as flora as in the terms gut flora or skin flora for purposes of specificity.[2][3][4]
