Summary
An index of chromosome numbers for spermatophytes indigenous to the New Zealand Botanical Region is presented, along with full references to the original reports. Chromosome numbers are listed for 1212 species out of a total estimated indigenous spermatophyte flora of 1883 described species. This represents 64.4% of the total with chromosome counts (100% for gymnosperms, 74.3% for dicotyledons, and 39.8% for monocotyledons)
