| End - | Number of species in genus that are endemic (found in Hawaii and nowhere else). See class handout for current flora statisics. |
| Ind - | Number of species in genus that are indigenous (native to Hawaii but not endemic). |
| Anc - | Number of original introductions (ancestors) believed to account for total diversity of the genus in Hawaii. |
| Source - | Source area of
ancestor(s).
Recent research indicates that adjustments to earlier estimates of the importance of some source areas are warranted and that a few Hawaiian groups may have their closest relatives in Africa. |
Austral Amer Boreal Indo-Pac Obscure Pantropic |
| Mode - | Means of dispersal of ancestor(s) from source area to Hawaii. | A = Drifting in air DF = Drifting in water, frequent DR = Drifting in water, rare BB = Externally on birds by barbs or other mechanical attachment BI = Internally in birds BV = Externally on birds by viscous attachment BM = In mud on birds feet |
