The Kinabalu flora is a combination of the floristic elements from the Himalayan and Chinese flora as well as that of the Australian and New Zealand flora. It has many species of rhododendrons as well as various oak and laurel species, which one does not normally associate with the tropics. The richness of the plant and animal species is also a reflection of the diversity of vegetation zones asone goes from 152 metres above sea level to 4,095 metres at the peak of Mount Kinabalu.
