FloraOfNewZealand-Ferns-ⅠⅠ-BrownseyPerrie-2022-...
Two dichotomous keys are presented here: one to distinguish the 32 families of ferns and lycophytes in New Zealand, and the other, the 78 genera. By working sequentially through the options, and selecting the most appropriate choice at each couplet, the first key will take users to one of the family treatments on the eFlora website, where further keys will identify genera and species within that family https://www.nzflora.info/publications.html. The second key will take users directly to a genus, which can then be investigated further in the relevant family treatment in order to identify individual species. Table 1 lists the family to which each genus belongs.
After gaining familiarity with the keys, users will be able to expedite the process by moving from one bold heading to the next until the relevant one is located. However, it is essential that the headings be followed in sequence from the beginning, rather than jumping immediately to something that looks relevant. Options may be missed if the correct sequence is not followed. It is also important to read the whole couplet before making a choice, particularly where there is more than one character option available. Usually the options are separated by “or”, and it is important to remember that the last option may be just as likely as the first.
