During fieldwork in Fiji, four new species of (Gesneriaceae) were discovered and are described herein: M.A.Johnson, , M.A.Johnson, , M.A.Johnson, , and M.A.Johnson, The addition of four new species brings the current number of Fijian to 41 endemic species. Two of the four species are known from only a single locality, and all of the new species are likely endangered or critically endangered. Continued fieldwork in the islands of Fiji is warranted in order to better understand current species distributions and population demographics of in this species-rich and still poorly explored region of the South Pacific.
在斐济进行野外考察期间,发现了四种新的(苦苣苔科)植物,并在此进行描述:约翰逊M.A.、 、约翰逊M.A.、 、约翰逊M.A.、 ,以及约翰逊M.A. 这四个新物种的加入使斐济当前的 植物特有物种数量达到41种。这四个物种中有两个仅在一个地点被发现,并且所有新物种都可能处于濒危或极度濒危状态。为了更好地了解南太平洋这个物种丰富但仍未得到充分探索的地区当前的物种分布和 植物的种群统计数据,有必要在斐济群岛继续进行野外考察。
