Eduncle Best Answer
It is estimated that there are four thousand species of flowering plants known from the Western Ghats and 1,500 (nearly 38 percent) of these are endemic.
Indo-Burma- A conservative estimate of total plant diversity in the hotspot reveals about 13,500 vascular plant species, of which about 7,000 (52 percent) are endemic (van Dijk et al. 2004).
Sundaland: In terms of vascular plant diversity and endemism, no truly reliable estimates exist. However, by extrapolating from what is known of the principal islands and countries that comprise the hotspot, total vascular plant diversity is estimated at roughly 25,000 species, and the number of endemics at 15,000.
At the very least, one-third of the more than 6000 vascular plant species native to the Philippines are endemic.
