New Zealand panbiogeography: Past, present, and future

Abstract

Abstract The history of panbiogeography in New Zealand leading up to the 1988 National Museum symposium on the panbiogeography of New Zealand is reviewed. The general historical significance of Leon Croizat’s contribution to the natural sciences and his impact on New Zealand biogeography is discussed. It is suggested that Charles Fleming’s biogeographic synthesis of New Zealand represented a major prelude to the current New Zealand interest in panbiogeography. Panbiogeography could play a major role in the contribution of museums to science and society through its methodlogical and conceptual links with both the Arts and Sciences.
