- W2317967234 abstract "Guinea is the paradise of ferns, wrote Carl Christensen in 1936,1 and added, The number of species occurring there is probably not far from 2000, the island thus far surpassing all other countries. At that time Christensen described 40 new species and the new genus Papuapteris from collections I made on the first Archbold expedition to New Guinea in 1933-1934. My collections from two subsequent Archbold expeditions-in the Territory of Papua in 1936-1937 and Dutch New Guinea in 1938-1939-have yielded 118 new species and the new genus Lepidocaulon described by Professor E. B. Copeland in various papers, and in addition a number of new records for the island of species previously known from other parts of Malaysia. Substantial contributions to the total of known species have been made by others in recent years, but by far the greater part of New Guinea remains quite untouched by botanical collectors. As early as 1934, according to Lam,2 970 species of Pteridophyta, including 597 endemic species, were known from the mainland and adjacent islands. New Guinea should be thought of as a great, diversified country rather than a mere island. Measuring 1500 miles in length and 450 in maximum width, its area of about 312,000 square miles is not much less than that of California, Oregon, and Washington combined and the high mountains of these states fall short by 2000 feet of the altitude of 16,500-foot Mount Carstensz in Dutch New Guinea. Carstensz, 4 degrees below the equator, is permanently capped with snow, as are five other eminences of the central range in the Dutch-owned western half of the country. Eastwards, in the United Nations" @default.
