AB -A survey of airborne pollen grains from May 1993 to April 1995 in Pingtung Station, Taiwan is here reported: The diurnal, daily, monthly and yearly studies of airborne pollen are included; the pollen calender of this area is proposed; the long distance pollen dispersion and the relationship between weather conditions are also discussed. These results might be useful diagnostic data for local doctors to treat pollinosis patients.
		Broussonetia aeropollen were captured as the largest annual amount. The largest monthly captured was found in March 1994. The diurnal collection varies in different months. It is difficult to decide when the pollen is released most abundantly per hour. The pollen calendar shows when each taxon had its different higher dispersion periods. Mimosa pudica dispersed in higher relative humidity and lower temperature; Trema in higher temperature and lower relative humidity; and Broussonetia without obvious realtionship to weather conditions. There are about 44 different pollen taxa found in long distance dispersion.
