Abstract

This checklist is primarily a compilation of past lists of plants found in Kipahulu Valley, which since 1968 has been a district within Haleakala National Park on Maui. The chief published sources of information about the vascular plants of upper Kipahulu Valley are Lamoureux (1967), Lamourem and Stemmermann (1976), St. John (1971), Yoshinaga (1980), and Anderson et al.

Plants of the lower portion of Kipahulu Valley are the subject of several recent Technical Reports published by the Cooperative National Park Resources Studies Unit of the University of Hawaii at Manoa (CPSU/UH Manoa): Canfield and Stemermann (1980); Smith, Williams, and Asherman (1985); Kinzie and Ford (1977); and Kinzie et al. (1979). The bryophyte names in the present checklist are from Hoe (1967) and Hoe and Smith (1980).
