The purpose of this project was to inventory the flora of Kalaupapa National Historical Park; create a permanent and usable herbarium in the form of physical vouchers and high resolution digital photographs for current and future park service staff, residents, and visitors; and duplicate a set of physical collections for the Bishop Museum in Honolulu for long-term archiving. Placing vouchers at the Bishop Museum and posting them on the web was intended to serve the greater conservation community in the state of Hawaii by greatly increasing the floristic inventory and distribution data for native, including some rare and endangered, as well as non-native plants on the island of Moloka`i. Additional vouchers of mostly rare plants were deposited in the herbarium at the National Tropical Botanical Garden by permitted researchers who assisted on this project.
