Excerpt from Flora of Miami: Being Descriptions of the Seed-Plants Growing Naturally on the Everglade Keys and in the Adjacent Everglades Southern Peninsular Florida The vegetation of the islands themselves is divided into two rather distinct plant-associations, namely, pineland and hammock, which are usually sharply differentiated from each other. These in turn are both rather abruptly marked off from the adjacent Everglades. With few exceptions the individual plant-species are distributed generally over the area under consideration. However, they are, in the majority of cases, confined to the one or the other of the plant-associations; consequently, on the following pages the local distribution of the species is indicated as Pinelands, Hammocks, Everglades. In addition to the area already described, two minor elements are included in our geographical range, the coastal sand-dunes of the narrow peninsula opposite Miami and also those of Virginia Key and Key Biscayne and the waters of Bay Biscayne itself. As the plant - life of the Everglade Keys is closely related to that of the Florida Keys, when a species is common to both, the fact is indicated in this flora by F. K. (florida Keys) following the habitat. The relationship of the plant-species of the Miami flora to the flora of the West Indies is also indicated; if a species grows on one or more of the West Indian islands, it is indicated by Ber. (bermuda), Bah. (bw hamas), Cuba, and if it also occurs in other parts of the West Indies it is indicated by Ant. (antilles).
