About 400 of the 875 taxa (including hybrids) attested in the Chatham Islands are indigenous to them; of these, only 47 are endemic to the islands.
This category contains flora that are native to, or naturalised on, the Chatham Islands. Taxa that are introduced but not naturalised are excluded. Taxa of the lowest rank are always included. Higher taxa are included only if endemic. The categorisation scheme follows the World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions.
