The present study aimed to determine floristic composition, vegetation cover of different communities in Wadi AlFurayshah, Saudi Arabia, and highlighting the ecological factors that affect species distribution. A total of 26 plant species were collected and identified to be distributed among four plant communities: Ziziphus nummularia, Panicum turegidum, Acacia gerardii, and Haloxylon salicornicum. The main factors influencing plant presence were soil texture, CaCO3, Na, Mg, Ca, Cl, EC, pH and organic matter content. The majority of the registered species in this survey were perennials with 16 of the total recorded species (61.54%), followed by annuals by 10 species (38.46%).
