A bit of ancient history here, Duncan! That visit with youwas my first island field trip with the Wildlife Service! The plant list could do with being updated for nomenclature (e.g. Melicytus oraria) and amending several errors (e.g. Freesia is a monocot and we now know the common adventive one in NZ is not F. refracta but F. leichtlinii).

So pleased you've commented here and I'd be very happy to see the nomenclature updated. I'd forgotten it was your first island field trip - proud to have enabled that!
