摘要
Significant native vegetation remains in urban Auckland in spite of extensive burning before 1840, and later farming and urbanisation. The vegetation and flora in 1985 are compared with those outlined by Thomas Kirk in 1871. Nearly 80% of all native species recorded in Auckland are still there, giving shores 36 species, wetland 38, scrub 72, forest 198, and other vegetation 61. A catalogue of plants is given. The impact of alien plants is discussed briefly.
