Flora of Waya Island, Fiji
Author: Rhys Owen Gardner
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Botany
Languages : en
Pages : 671
Book Description
"This is an account of the plants that grow on the small Fijian island of Waya. It mainly concerns species native to Fiji but a number of adventives ("exotics" or "introductions") have been included too - in total 321 species are treated. It is based on specimens collected by Harold St John in 1937 and cited in A.C. Smith's Flora Viytiensis Nova, and on collections I got on Waya in 1991, 1992 and 2017. St John seems to have been the first botanist to visit Waya - neither the U.S. Exploring Expedition nor Berthold Seemann did. Subsequently, Waya and the other islands in the Yasawa Islands group have been collected from only infrequently (Smith 1979:76). I hope to show that this neglect is underserved."--Intorudction, p.1.
