Pratt L. Cover-Abundance of Native and Introduced Polynesian Plants of Pu`uhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park. National Park Service, Pacific Islands Support Office
The vegetation of Pu`uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park was surveyed in 1992-93 as part of a monitoring study of plants, birds, mammals, and invertebrates of three Kona parks. One hundred thirty four plant species were found in the Park, including six endemic species (4%), 17 (13%) indigenous species, 15 (11%) Polynesian introductions, and 96 (72%) alien or non-indigenous species introduced after 1778. Thirty-three species were additions to the known flora of the Park since the previous plant checklist (Smith et al. 1986).
