Abstract

Abstract Plunkett, G.M., T.A. Ranker, C. Sam & M.J. Balick (2022). Towards a checklist of the Vascular Flora of Vanuatu. Candollea 77: 105–118. In English, English and French abstracts. Vanuatu is an archipelago in the southwest Pacific that, to date, has no modern checklist of its flora, despite the fact that it sits in the midst of several other archipelagos of known species richness (New Caledonia, Fiji, and the Solomon Islands, among others). The present study describes our effort to establish a checklist of accepted species names that apply to taxa known or thought to occur in Vanuatu. In collating data from the Vanuatu National Herbarium (PVNH) and online databases (including virtual herbaria and database compilations), we have developed a checklist of 1,631 species of vascular plants, of which 1,262 (77.4 %) are putatively native, and 360 (22.1 %) introduced (the distributional status of the remaining 0.5 % are uncertain). Endemics represent 10.1 % of all species (native plus introduced), but 13.1 % when considering native species only. This article is linked to a dynamic checklist available online that will be continually updated, and we encourage members of the global botanical community, especially those with expertise in the taxa listed or the general floristics of the Pacific Islands, to provide corrections and additions.

瓦努阿图血管植物区系一览表

[摘要]Plunkett, g.m.， T.A. Ranker, C. Sam和M.J. Balick(2022)。瓦努阿图维管植物区系清单。烛台，77:105-118。英文，英文和法文摘要。瓦努阿图是西南太平洋的一个群岛，尽管它位于其他几个已知物种丰富的群岛(新喀里多尼亚、斐济和所罗门群岛等)中间，但迄今为止，它的植物群还没有现代清单。本研究描述了我们为建立一个适用于瓦努阿图已知或被认为存在的分类群的公认物种名称清单所做的努力。在整理瓦努阿图国家植物标本室(PVNH)和在线数据库(包括虚拟植物标本室和数据库汇编)的数据时，我们开发了1631种维管植物的清单，其中1262种(77.4%)是假定的本地植物，360种(22.1%)是引进的(其余0.5%的分布状况不确定)。地方性物种占所有物种的10.1%(本地物种加上引进物种)，但仅考虑本地物种时占13.1%。本文链接到一个在线动态清单，该清单将不断更新，我们鼓励全球植物界的成员，特别是那些在所列分类群或太平洋岛屿一般植物区系方面具有专业知识的成员，提供更正和补充。2021年5月11日收稿。于2022年4月29日接受。于2022年6月1日首次在网上发布。

期刊介绍： Candollea is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes original scientific papers, preferably in English but also in French. Spanish language manuscripts will be evaluated only if linked to scientific projects involving the Conservatoire et Jardin botaniques de Genève. Successful submissions will be in the fields of evolution, molecular systematics, morphology-anatomy, nomenclature, taxonomy, or vegetation analyses of plants. Reviews and articles on the history of botanical collections are welcome. New distribution records lacking pertinent analyses will not be considered. Manuscripts dealing with nomenclature alone will be considered only if clearly related to the Geneva library or herbarium (G). Authors are encouraged to deposit duplicates of their material, especially nomenclatural types, at G.
