However, there are challenges when it comes to sampling methods, methodologies, sample size, and field measurements that hinder the comparison and compilation of findings. In this paper, we explore the advantages and disadvantages of various sampling techniques used in floristic inventory and diversity analysis. The results sggest a meaningful relationship between Tourism and Floral species Diversity in Delo Hill, Kalimpomg,
