The vegetation of the Netherlands Antilles

This vegetation survey is the outcome of an investigation of the islands of the Netherlands Antilles carried out under the auspices of the Foundation for Scientific Research in Surinam and the Netherlands Antilles. The data on which the present study is based were obtained during a trip which lasted from September 1952 until October 1953. During this trip the following islands were visited: Curaςao, Bonaire, Aruba, St. Martin, Saba, and St. Eustatius. A short visit was also paid to the island of St. Kitts (B.W.I.).

Botanisch onderzoek van de Nederlandse Antillen

Botanisch onderzoek van een gebied heeft als regel in drie fasen plaats:

  1. floristisch onderzoek, teneinde een overzicht te krijgen van de plantensoorten, variëteiten en andere systematische eenheden die in het betreffende gebied gevonden worden;
  2. vegetatie-onderzoek, om een overzicht te krijgen van de samenstelling van het plantendek;
  3. oecologisch onderzoek, om tot een causale verklaring van die vegetatie te komen.

Deze drie fasen zijn in de Nederlandse Antillen ook te onderscheiden en zullen daarom achtereenvolgens besproken worden

Uitgewerkte lezing gehouden op 27 november 1965, ter gelegenheid van het 20-jarig bestaan van de 'Natuurwetenschappelijke Studiekring voor Suriname en de Nederlandse Antillen.
