Sonchus berteroanus, synonym Dendroseris berteroana, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is found only in the Juan Fernández Islands of Chile. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Sonchus lobatiflorus, synonym Dendroseris gigantea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is endemic to the Juan Fernández Islands. It is threatened by habitat loss. Sonchus lobatiflorus has one plant representative left on Selkirk island, although it is being artificially planted on Robinson Crusoe Island.
Dendroseris litoralis, the cabbage tree, is a small evergreen tree species belonging to the daisy and sunflower family Asteraceae. It is found only on the Juan Fernández Islands, west of Chile, and is threatened by habitat loss. It is native only to tiny, volcanic Robinson Crusoe Island, one of the Juan Fernández Islands in the southeast Pacific, far off the coast of Chile, and home of the famed Juania australis and many other endemic plants. This strange, small tree has been brought back from the brink of extinction. It had been reduced to only a few individuals by feral goats on the island, and is still considered critically endangered.

Podophorus is an extinct genus of plants in the grass family. The only known species is Podophorus bromoides, which was native to Robinson Crusoe Island in the South Pacific Ocean. This is one of the Juan Fernández Islands, part of the Republic of Chile. The plant was last collected in the wild in the mid-19th century and is now considered extinct. A genetic analysis of the type material found it to be most closely related to Megalachne, also endemic to the Juan Fernández archipelago. This clade was in turn found to be nested within a paraphyletic Festuca, most closely related to F. pampeana of South America.
