Cultivated crops and fruits, orchards form part of vegetation but not natural vegetation

The virgin vegetation, which are purely Indian are known as endemic or indigenous species but those which have come from outside India are termed as exotic plants.

The term flora is used to denote plants of a particular region or period. The species of animals are referred to as fauna.
