- Summary
- Chromosome numbers are reported for 112 endemic or indigenous vascular plants from New Zealand. Ninety one of these are new and the remainder provide confirmation of previous counts. Many of the counts fill gaps in the available record of chromosome numbers of New Zealand plants and a summary table provides a list of the genera where numbers remain to be determined. With the publication of these numbers, c. 85% of the indigenous vascular flora of New Zealand now has a documented chromosome number.
