Short summary
Vegetation plot databases have been widely developed, yet the Hengduan Mountains (HDM), one of the world’s richest biodiversity hotspots, remain insufficiently represented. The HDM-Plot dataset was compiled from field surveys conducted between 2022 and 2024 and includes 314 plots with 14 113 individual records from lowland dry-hot valleys to alpine ecosystems. It provides updated and standardized plot data for vegetation classification, mapping, and biodiversity research in mountain regions.
