Dubautia reticulata, the net-veined dubautia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae that is endemic to the island of Maui in Hawaii. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Located about 2,300 miles (3,680 km) from the nearest continental shore, the Hawaiian Islands are the most isolated group of islands on the planet. The plant and animal life of the Hawaiian archipelago is the result of early, very infrequent colonizations of arriving species and the slow evolution of those species—in isolation from the rest of the world's flora and fauna—over a period of at least 5 million years. As a consequence, Hawai'i is home to a large number of endemic species. The radiation of species described by Charles Darwin in the Galapagos Islands which was critical to the formulation of his theory of evolution is far exceeded in the more isolated Hawaiian Islands.
Argyroxiphium is a small genus of plants in the family Asteraceae. Its members are known by the common names silversword or greensword due to their long, narrow leaves and the silvery hairs on some species. The silverswords belong to a larger radiation of over 50 species, including the physically different genera Dubautia and Wilkesia. This grouping is often referred to as the silversword alliance. Botanist P. H. Raven referred to this radiation as "the best example of adaptive radiation in plants".
Guioa is a genus of about 78 rainforest tree species known to science, which constitute part of the plant family Sapindaceae. They have a wide distribution, ranging from throughout Malesia, in Burma, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra, Philippines, Java, Flores, Timor, Sulawesi, Moluccas, New Guinea, further southwards through the east coast of Queensland and New South Wales, Australia and further eastwards to the Pacific Islands, including Tonga, New Caledonia, Fiji and Samoa.
Wilkesia gymnoxiphium, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae that is endemic to the island of Kauaʻi in Hawaiʻi. It is classified as endangered on the IUCN Red List. Wilkesia is one of three genera, with Argyroxiphium and Dubautia that are believed to be descendant from a single species related to the North American tarweed. The members of these three genera constitute what is called the silversword alliance, a group whose exceedingly close genetic heritage is not reflected in their exceptionally diverse morphologies.
The blue-streaked lory is also known as the blue-necked lory. It is a medium-sized parrot (31 cm), which is found on the Tanimbar Islands and Babar in the southern Moluccas.
Cola reticulata is a species of flowering plant in the family Malvaceae. It is found in Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Guinea. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Dubautia arborea, the tree dubautia or Mauna Kea dubautia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. A member of the silversword alliance, it is endemic to the island of Hawaiʻi. It is a shrub or small tree. It is an endangered species that is threatened by feral grazing animals.
Dubautia microcephala, the small-head dubautia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is endemic to the island of Kauai in Hawaii. It is a perennial shrub or tree that grows up to 10 ft (3.0 m) tall.
The streak-breasted honeyeater or streaky-breasted honeyeater is a species of bird in the family Meliphagidae. It is found on Timor island. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical mangrove forest, and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest.
Amastra reticulata was a species of air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Amastridae. This species was endemic to Oʻahu, and was known from the Waiʻanae Range.
Anisophyllea reticulata is a species of plant in the Anisophylleaceae family. It is endemic to Peninsular Malaysia.
Anisoptera reticulata is a tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae. The specific epithet reticulata means "netted", referring to the leaf veins.
Badula reticulata is a species of plant in the family Primulaceae. It is endemic to Mauritius.
Hopea exalata is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae. It is endemic to Hainan Island in southern China and enjoys second-class national protection. Some authors consider H. exalata as a junior synonym of Hopea reticulata that is also known from Vietnam. Hopea exalata produces Hopeanol.
Hopea reticulata is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae. It is found in Thailand and Vietnam. Some authors include Hopea exalata of Hainan, China to this species.
Horsfieldia reticulata is a species of plant in the family Myristicaceae. It is a tree endemic to Borneo.
Ixonanthes reticulata is a species of plant in the Ixonanthaceae family. It is native to an area from China to India to mainland and maritime Southeast Asia. It is a broadleaf evergreen.
Trichilia reticulata is a species of plant in the family Meliaceae. It is endemic to Jamaica.
Dubautia kenwoodii, the Kalalau rim dubautia, is an "extremely rare" species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is endemic to Hawaii where it is known only from the island of Kauai. Only one plant has ever been seen: the type specimen. A part of this plant was collected in 1991 and the individual was described as a new species in 1998. It was federally listed as an endangered species of the United States in 2010. Like other Dubautia this plant is known as naʻenaʻe.
Dubautia laevigata, commonly known as the smooth dubautia, is a species of Dubautia endemic to moderate elevations on the island of Kaua'i in the state of Hawaii, United States. A member of the Silversword alliance, it only grows in the understory of mesic Hawaiian tropical rainforests. It is declining in population and is threatened by the spread of invasive species, with approximately 5500 individuals remaining.
