본 연구는 백령도의 관속식물을 밝히고 주요 식물들의 분포를 조사하였다. 2011년 8월부터 2012년 11월까지 총 5회에 걸쳐 수행되었다. 그 결과 관속식물은 124과 411속 647종 8아종 68변종 7품종 2교잡종으로 총 732분류군이 확인되었으며, 처음으로 밝혀진 분류군은 193분류군이었다. 이 중 환경부 지정 멸종위기야생식물은 2분류군, 한국 고유종 8분류군, 식물구계학적 특정식물 78분류군, 희귀식물 20분류군이 조사되었다. 또한 남 북방계식물 30분류군, 염생식물 43분류군이 발견되었다. 귀화식물은 92분류군으로 확인되었으며, 귀화율은 12.5%로 나타났다.
This study was carried out to investigate the flora of Baengnyeongdo (Isl.). The vascular plants which were collected in 5 times (from Aug. 2011 and Nov. 2012) were identified as 732 taxa in total, including 124 families, 411 genera, 647 species, 8 subspecies, 68 varieties, 7 forms and 2 hybrids. 193 of these taxa were first records for the region. In the flora of this area, the endangered plants designated and protected by the wildlife protection law, the Ministry of Environment, Korea were counted to two taxa. Korean endemics plants numbered 8 taxa, and 78 taxa of specially designated floristic regional indicator plants by the Ministry of Environment. And rare plants were identified as 20 taxa. Based on the list of southern and northern limit of distribution plants, 30 taxa and 43 taxa of halophytes were recorded in the investigated area. The naturalized plants were identified as 92 taxa, and their naturalization ratio were found to be 12.5%, respectively.
