Abstract
We present an updated list of 532 vascular plant species distributed in 375 genera and 110 families on the islands of San Andres and Old Providence, Colombia, based on a compilation of published literature and some additional observations. The following nine plant species are new plant records for the islands: Cycas circinalis L. (Cycadaceae), Clerodendrum trichotonum Wall., Mentha viridis (L.) L., Ocimum americanum L. var. americanum, O. basilicum var. purpurascens Benth., O. campechianum Mill. (Lamiaceae), Pandanus sp. (Pandanaceae), Duranta repens L. and Lantana involucrata L. (Verbenaceae).
