A floristic inventory was conducted in the Palenque National Park, Chiapas, México. Botanical collections were made in 2008 and herbarium databases were revised. About 484 species, 319 genera and 100 families were recorded. The most representative families correspond to Fabaceae (31 genera and 38 species) and Rubiaceae (18 genera and 29 species). The most diverse genera were Psychotria with ten species, Ficus and Piper with eight species respectively. Four endemic species for Chiapas were recorded, 12 species were recorded under some risk category in the NOM- ECOL-059-2010 and nine species were recorded in the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature. The floristic richness recorded, restricted floristic element and under conservation status, to make clear the importance of conservation of National Park Palenque.
