A list of angiosperm genera endemic to the Indian Floristic Region and its neighbouring areas is presented. In all, there are 164 genera - 121 in 40 dicotyledonous families, 40 in eight monocotyledonous families and three Incertae Sedis. Of these, 122 genera are monotypic, and nine may be found in Burma as well. Another 23 genera hitherto considered endemic have been excluded giving reasons. Nomenclatural notes and information on the number of species and the distribution of the genera is included. The need for a restudy of these has been emphasized.
