This multi-decade project was spearheaded by NTBG’s Senior Research Botanist Dr. David Lorence and Dr. Warren Wagner, a Research Botanist and Curator of Botany with the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History. The Flora of the Marquesas is a collaboration between NTBG, the Smithsonian Institution, Délégation á la Recherche de la Polynésie Française, and other partners.
The Marquesas Islands are a volcanic archipelago of 12 islands and numerous islets situated within the eastern part of French Polynesia, making it one of the most isolated groups of oceanic islands. Volume 2 of the Flora of the Marquesas Islands covers the dicots, dicot exsiccatae (specimens studied), a list of cultivated plants, a list of all literature cited, and an index to both volumes.
Volume 2, a hardbound color book which comprises 722 pages with 256 color figures and line drawings, is scheduled to be published in September 2020.
