Once a new species arrived,it had to find a suitable place to live,and it had to find a mate— two difficult tasks on a barren island.It is estimated that a new species colonized the archipelago only once every 50,000 years.Due to these obstacles many plants and animals never became established at all.Case in point:Hawai`i has only two native mammals,the ,,, Hoary Bat and the Monk Seal,and no native reptiles. Ferns,whose tiny spores are dispersed worldwide via jet streams,were probably the first■ �\ ` colonizers of the Hawaiian Islands.A few other plant species may have arrived by wind,but migrating . sea birds transported about 95%of Hawai`'s native flowering plants.Birds carry seeds of consumed fruit e- " .. _ } -71 in their gut as well as unwanted hitchhikers in their - _ feathers and in mud stuck to their feet.Additional —`= °"—`– plants may have floated to the islands,but the direction of the currents and the extreme isolation of the islands make this an unlikely event.All in I all,scientists estimate that only 700 original plant,animal,and insect species established themselves in Hawaii.These species that inhabit an area without the aid of humans are known as indigenous. Once a species establishes itself,it begins to spread out across the landscape. In Hawaii this presented a problem,because as a species moved into a new area,it found itself in a drastically different habitat.Hawaii houses nearly every habitat known to man, and also boasts unique environments such as Wai'ale'ale on Kauai,the wettest place on earth.In the Hawaiian Islands mere miles can separate rain forest and desert conditions. As indigenous colonizers moved into new areas,they adapted to form more than 6,000 unique Hawaiian species that are endemic,meaning that they are found nowhere else in the world.Hawai'i has one of the highest rates of endemism in the world.These were periods during the 75 million years of Hawai'i's history when the islands existed above 4 I Amy Greenwell Garden Ethnobotanical Guide I I I sea level and no Hawaiian plants survived.But whenever land rose above the sea,the process of colonization and adaptation continued with species constantly island-hopping as new islands were formed and old ones sank into the sea. IPOLYNESIAN HISTORY The ancestors of the Polynesians came �,,,,.:, 4v ;, from southeastern Asia.It is agreed that these people started "'` making open sea �^` journeys to the south � ,, a 5,000 to 6,000 years _ ago.Having mingled Lwith the locals both culturally and genetically in the islands of Southeast Asia and Near Oceania,these now I Austronesian people left behind a remarkable heritage commonly referred to as the Lapita culture,which thrived 3,500 years ago,primarily in Papua New Guinea. The Lapita eventually continued their migration east,and by around 1000 B.C. they had colonized Samoa and Tonga.Oddly,in the Samoan area contact with the I western islands dwindled,and for nearly 1,000 years the language,mythology,and political structure of the Polynesian culture was developed.Around the time of Christ, the Samoans began making incredibly long sea voyages to the far reaches of the Pacific Ocean.Polynesia is roughly defined by a triangle connecting Hawai`i,Aotearoa(New Zealand),and Rapa Nui(Easter Island). Ir The first people to Hawaii most likely came between 300 and 700 A.D.from the Marquesas,which are the nearest high islands to the south.By this time the Polynesians had perfected their sea voyaging skills,and knew well how to navigate the vast Pacific I Ocean,using a combination of astronomy and the reading of weather patterns and ocean birds.They also knew what plants and animals were needed to colonize a new island and the best way to transport those resources.The Polynesians brought to Hawai'i about I 27 different plant species and 4 animals:dogs,chickens,pigs,and,accidentally,rats. Polynesian culture flourished in Hawaii because of the plants and animals the voyaging Polynesians brought with them in their canoes and because they learned how to use the rnew plants that they found here.

Hibiscus tiliaceus Y Malvaceae(Mallow Family) y� Indigenous(?) 0 This huge shrub can be found ' ;, near waterways,springs,and other damp areas in lower * ., IP elevations.The five-petaled flowers are red when young but turn bright yellow as they open,then fade to crimson before they fall from the plant.They seem to always land face up,and Hawaiian rivers near the ocean are often littered with hundreds of floating hau flowers,as if for some elaborate wedding.The trunk and branches of this tree twist and loop,forming impenetrable thickets that ancient peoples used around villages as a natural defensive barrier. Han was most appreciated,however,for its unparalleled ease in making natural cordage. The bark layer can be easily stripped from a hau branch and the inner hark fibers separate themselves into long,tough lengths of fiber,which were then twisted into cordage for a 3 variety of uses.So prevalent was hau fiber use in old Hawaii that the"grass skirts"many people associate with the islands are actually not grass at all,but the fibers of the hau bark! There is still some debate as to whether the Polynesians brought hau to Hawai'i or if it was already here.It is very probable that the answer is both!

This plant is also larval host to one of only ' two native butterflies in Hawaii.Known '' as the Kamehameha Butterfly(Vanessa .,, . . 4''' tamearnea),this monarch look-alike 111 ✓ can still occasionally be seen around Hawaiian forests.The caterpillar lives on the nrarnaki plant,where it cuts and folds a leaf to form a small"house."The larger catepillars are impressive,inch-long,spiny green larvae.The adults feed on a variety I of plants and nectars,but are said to prefer the sweet fresh sap of the koa tree. 111L-7"..r Amy Greenwell Garden Fthnobotanical Guide I 117 I I I I I I I . , .. . - . ., „ ,, ' 1 4 , , _ . , II . . .

This next example takes us hack into the realm of more familiar plants,at least for a sentence or two. The family Piperaceae, home to only eight genera, boasts nearly I 3,000 species, among them Piper nigrum, the ground fruits of which the reader will know as black pepper.Two other species that are in common use,primarily in trop- ical countries and in the Pacific Basin, respectively, are P. betel, the betel nut, and P. methysticum, known as kava, kawa, or sometimes as yangona. Betel does not con- cern us in this hook, but we will take a look at kava when we examine a few of the species brought to the islands by the early Polynesians. Whereas Piper has no native species in the Hawaiian flora,its related genus Peperomia,`ala'ala wai nui,is among the Hawaiian genera with the largest number of native species. Some authorities have estimated the number of species at about 50, but we will go with the Manual which lists 26 species, of which 23 are native, two are indigenous, and one is naturalized. The range of variation exhibited by the natives led to the suggestion by the authors of the Manual that there have been three,or possibly four, independent colonizations.The thousand species that consti- tute the genus are primarily pantropical in distribution. With this many potential , donors, and the likelihood that seeds can be carried by birds, it is not difficult to imagine several introductions.I am unaware of any published studies examining this system, but it would seem to present an ideal opportunity to apply DNA sequencing techniques.

Intermediates occur between these two extremes. Head dark in adults and light in immatures. Feet and legs are yellowish in adults, greenish in immatures. In flight, note broad wings and tail;wings are held in a moderate "V" shape. Voice: A shrill, high-pitched "kee-oh." Pairs are noisy during the breeding season. I Habits: 'lo are often observed soaring gracefully in updrafts over forests, grasslands, and cane fields. They feed on rodents, insects, and small birds, including young game birds. One to three light blue eggs are laid in a nest constructed of twigs, sticks, and leaves in a tree. Both parents aggressively defend the nest and feed the young. Usually only a single nestling is fledged. The'lo is a symbol of royalty in Hawaiian legend.Other raptors that occasion- ally visit Hawai'i include the Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus)and Osprey Ill ail (Pandion hafiaetus),which are usually seen in coastal and wetland areas. 64 RI U >P Si S 1 w 1•• 11.4+ Aft* .. 1 • •• • 1 • b, , y. :1", •...e...0:00 or ... . 41 ' r *X s .
