Abstract: Due to the complex diversity in ecology, morphology and cytology of Saxifraga, it is difficult to identify the species, which results to an incomplete collection in local floras. Thirty-two Saxifraga species were captured in Flora Qinghaiica. New distribution of six Saxifraga L. species in Qinghai Province was discovered based on field expedition and specimen identification, namely Saxifragaangustata, S. atuntsiensis, S.congestiflora, S. granulifera, S. heleonastes and S. pasumensis, which are neither reported in Flora Qinghaiica nor in Flora of China.

Key words: Saxifraga, new distribution, Qinghai Province
