This paper provides an inventory of the riparian flora of the Kaliwa River Watershed (KRW) in Sierra Madre Mountain Range, Philippines including stand structure, plant diversity, endemism and ecological status. A total of 386 morpho-species belonging to 278 genera and 95 families were recorded from the study area. There are at least 60 Philippine endemics reported, six of which are Luzon endemics. Twenty-two species were listed under either the Philippine Red List or on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Results of the plant diversity assessment revealed that biodiversity in riparian forests in KRW is still high despite the obvious massive disturbance in the area.
