Abstract:The geographical distribution, floristic characteristics, and species differentiation of gymnosperm in Wuyi Mountains, Fujian Province, were studied based on field investigation. The results showed that Wuyi Mountains of Fujian was a core region of Huangshan-Wuyi Mountains centers, there were 39 species of gymnosperms, belonging to 10 families and 24 genera. The geographical distribution patterns belonged to mid-altitude bulge type along latitude. Flora of gymnosperm had notable subtropical mountainous characteristic, the proportion of tropical areal-type decreased with the increment of altitude, while the proportion of temperate and endemic to China areal-types increased. The phylogenetic differentiation intensity of gymnosperm decreased from northern to southern of Wuyi Mountains.
