A FL ORISTIC CHECKLIST OF VASCULAR PLANTS COMPOSED BY 103 FAMILIES, 260 GENERA, 359 SPECIES AND 11 SUBSPECIFIC TAXA WAS OBTAINED. ELEVEN SPECIES REPRESENTED IN THIS FOREST ARE INCLUDED IN THE OFFICIAL MEXICAN DOCUMENT NAMED NORMA OFICIAL MEXICANA NOM-050-ECOL-2001, AS SPECIES IN SOME RISK CATEGORY AND WE SUGGEST THE STUDY OF TWO ADDITIONAL SPECIES FOR THEIR POSSIBLE INCLUSION.
