Flora en Isla de los Estados. Until the present 177 species pertaining to 52 families have been collected in the island. This number represents 27 % of the flora present in the Argentine portion of Land of the Fire composed by 666 species and 89 families (Zuloaga ET al. 1999). It is necessary to remarcar that only 7 species are accidental in the island (4 %) against 114 Land present exotic species of the Fire (17%).

Project initiated by John Sawyer of D.O.C and further refined and updated by Colin Ogle of Wanganui before Ewen Cameron and Mei Nee Lee of the Auckland Museum herbarium very kindly provided lists of adventive species by ecological district for the Wellington Conservancy from the AK database. I must also thank Ewen Cameron and Rhys Gardner for identification of a number of specimens included in this list, Phillipa Crisp from W.R.C. also supplied information on species recorded by or on behalf of W.R.C and not already included in the database.
