Abstract

This review focuses on 333 scientific names published in 1964 by Jong-Hyu Bu. As a result, a total of 330 taxa including 102 families, 220 genera, 322 species, 2 variants, and 6 varieties were identified. Among them, the percentage of the scientific names at the time of publication corresponding with the accepted names at present accounts for mere 51.2%, 169 taxa including 29 taxa of the alien species. The recently published as unrecorded in Korea, includes native species such as Microsorum buergerianum (Miq.) Ching, Viola grypoceras A. Gray var. pubescens Nakai, Stellaria sessiliflora Y. Yabe, Achyranthes longifolia (Makino) Makino as well as alien species such as Erigeron strigosus Muhl. In addition, the species that have not yet been identified on Jeju Island were 9 taxa including Cheilanthes argenta Kunze. The number of unrecorded species in Korea but distributed in Japan, Chine, etc. amounts to 28 taxa including Deparia acrostichoides (Sw.) M. Kata, which are assumed to inhabit Jeju Island or appear to be in error in identification. The results of re-establishing the list of native plants on Jeju Island announced by Jong-Hyu Bu through the current plant taxonomy are considered to be of high value in forming the knowledge of the species distributed on Jeju Island.
