Description:
This essay was primarily made as a background study for a lecture on \xe2\x80\x98Transpacific Floristic Affinities, particularly in the Tropical Zone\xe2\x80\x99 in a symposium on \xe2\x80\x98Pacific Basin Biogeography: Tropical Relationships\xe2\x80\x99 at the 10th Pacific Science Congress, Honolulu, August 1961 \xc2\xb9).\nThe occasion was a welcome challenge to crystallize my knowledge and views on the fascinating subject of the Indo-Pacific plant geography which has occupied my thoughts for several decades. Besides, as a corollary of plant-geographical studies on the Malaysian flora, my interest in it was distinctly restimulated by the compilation of maps of Pacific plants for the work \xe2\x80\x98Pacific Plant Areas\xe2\x80\x99.
