INTRODUCTION
F orestry work in the American/Pacific islands suffers . from the lack of a cross-indexed list of scientific and . common names of trees and shrubs. The problem is especially acute for those who work throughout this area of numerous fanguages and dialects. Although English is becoming the lingua franca of the area, many plants lack common English names. Instead, the multiplicity of common names often unique to the many languages, dialects, islands, and even parts of islands in the area makes communication difficult.
We have sought to bring together results ofpast efforts to collect and compile common plant names into a computerized, cross-indexed source that can be updated from time to time. In doing this, we have built on the work of Edwin H. Bryan Jr., the late curator emeritus of the Pacific Scientific Information Center of the Bishop Museum, F. Raymond Fosberg, curator emeritus of the Botany Department of the Smithsonian Institution, and other authors listed in the References. This initial compilation is in.tended·as a working list for field workers, and is designed to be improved and expanded as a result of ongoing and future work.
Botanical studies and the collection of common plant names in Micronesia have been carried on by numerous workers over many years, often in conjunction with other efforts. None of the field workers whose lists are included in this present compilation has had the aid of an official orthography for the language whose plant names were collected. Most of these workers did not themselves speak the local language or have time to adjust their ears or spellings to the language ofa particular island. Therefore, published names and spellings are not without problems. The names included here, except those for the Marshall Islands, are largely taken as listed in earlier publications. A reference is given for each entry, so that the source of the name may be traced. Names from the Marshall Islands were reviewed and spellings were modified according to consensus by a group of native speakers of Marshallese.
CONTENTS AND SCOPE
This bulletin lists some 602 scientific names, and 2913 common names in ·a variety of languages used in the Caroline, Marshall and Mariana Islands in the Western
·Pacific Ocean. The names listed are those of trees and shrubs (in the
broad sense) for which common names are available in the · literature. Politically, the area covered includes the Feder
ated States ofMicronesia (comprising the States ofPohnpei, Kosrae, Truk, and Yap), Republic ofPalau, Republic of the Marshall Islands, Territory of Guam, and the Common
wealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. Rules for indicating species symbols are those estab
lished by the U.S. Department ofAgriculture's Soil Conservation Service (SCS) for the National List of Scientific Plant Names. Symbols in this list have been compared with the National List of Scientific Plant Names (SCS 1982); conflicting or duplicate entries have been adjusted by the use of tie breakers. Scientific names of Dicotyledonae follow those given in Fosberg and others (1979); palms follow those given in Moore and Fosberg (19 56), and Gymnosperms follow those given in Fosberg and others (1982).
USE OF LISTS
The computerized data base compiled in accordance with the preceding rules will be maintained for future updating by the Forest Service, Pacific Southwest Forest and Range Experiment Station at 1151 Punch~ow1 Street, Room 323, Honolulu, HI 96813. Information presented here is organized as follows:
Plant names are listed by the major language groups and areas in which they would be used in the field. These are given below.
1. Mariana islands (Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and the Territory of Guam)
2. Republic of Palau 3. Republic of the Marshall Islands 4. State of Kosrae, Federated States of Micronesia 5. State of Poh.npei, Federated States of Micronesia 6. State of Truk, Federated States of Micronesia 7. State of Yap, Federated States of Micronesia
For each, of these areas, two major lists are given: (1) an alphabetical list by common plant names; (2) an alphabetical list by scientific names. In addition, a separate list of common synonyms has been included for all islands, and in table 1 (all tables are in the Appendix), a list of language codes.
The common names list is in this format (table 2):
1. Species symbol 2. Common name 3. Scientific name, including variety and subspecies 4. Author 5. Language code . 6. Source of common nJlme.
