The Hawaiian flora, because of its great isolation, high levels of endemism, known lineages,
and high rates of endangerment, offers unique opportunities to explore patterns of …

We describe the floristic composition of Hawaiian dry forest trees and identify natural history
characteristics and biogeographic variables that are associated with risk of endangerment …

Aim A detailed database of distributions and phylogenetic relationships of native Hawaiian
flowering plant species is used to weigh the relative influences of environmental and …

As the most remote archipelago in the world, the Hawaiian Islands are home to a highly
endemic and disharmonic biota that has fascinated biologists for centuries. Forests are the …

Hawai 'i has more endangered and threatened plants than any other state in the United
States (263/699 taxa or 38% US listed vascular plants). Because of the magnitude of the …

Abstract The biota of Hawaiian Islands is derived entirely from long distance dispersal, often
followed by in situ speciation. Species descended from each colonist constitute …

The angiosperm flora of the Hawaiian Islands, with its high incidence of dioecy, has been
central in development of hypotheses about the evolution of dioecy. Based on a recent …

The current high islands of the Hawaiian archipelago are among the most remote land
masses in the world. They lie 3500 km from California, the nearest continental source, and …

Plant communities on tropical high islands, such as the Hawaiian Islands, are predicted to
experience rapid climate change, resulting in novel climates. If increased temperature …

Botanists have long considered the origins of the Hawaiian flora in terms of long‐distance
dispersal from particular source areas. We extensively reviewed phylogenetic studies of the …
