摘要
There are only four species of Fuchsia that are not native to the New World, three occurring on New Zealand and the fourth on Tahiti. The biology and systematics of these taxa are examined here in detail, including known and new information on phenology, habitats, pollination, dispersal, cytology, hybridization, and evolutionary relationships. Because of the basal position of F. procumbens in the clade of South Pacific fuchsias and its large suite of unique characters, it is recognized as a new section, Procumbentes, within the genus. This leaves F. cyrtandroides, F. excorticata, and F. perscandens in section Skinnera. Fuchsia Xcolensoi is treated here as a widespread and variable hybrid between F. excorticata and F. perscandens. Keys and descriptions of the taxa are provided.
