        The study of the flora is important in management and development of natural resources because it shows the plant species presence and vegetation cover condition. The aim of this research was to identify the plant species, introducing the flora, determination of life forms, and plant geographical distribution of Kandoleh, in Kermanshah province. During vegetation growth, from 2020 we collected and identified plant species in the study region, and floristic list was provided. The results showed the collected species belong to 78 genera and 21 species in the region. The most important families were, Graminae (15.51%), Compositae (13.79%) and Leguminosae (10.3%) and Campanulaceae (9.48%) and Labiatae (8.6%). Life forms of plant species included hemicritophytosis 41.3%, tetrophytes 33.6%, chamaephytes 11.2%, Geophytes 8.6% and phanerophytes 5.1%. The high percentage of hemicritopathitis species indicated that the area has cold climate. The plants geographical distribution is related to Irano-touranian(75.57%), European- Mediterranean (15.51%), Irano-touranian/ Europe–Siberean (7.75%), cosmopolitan (3/34%), plural (3/4%), touranian (3.34%), Europe – Siberean (2.58%), Irano-touranian/ Mediterranean/ Europe – Siberean/ (1.72%), Irano-touranian/ Sahara-Sindian (0.86) Sahara-Sindian (0.86).
