Category:Endemic flora of Seychelles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This category includes plants endemic to the Granitic Seychelles, a group of islands which form the main part of the island country Seychelles. These islands sit on the Seychelles Bank and composed mostly of granite derived from ancient continental crust.[1]

Aldabra and Seychelles' other coralline islands – Amirante Islands, Farquhar Group, and Southern Coral Group, (Coëtivy and Île Platte) – which are known as the Outer Islands or Coralline Seychelles, are politically part of Seychelles, but the World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions treats them a separate botanical country.[1] See Category:Flora of Aldabra
