First record of a vascular plant from the Bounty Islands: Lepidium oleraceum (nau, Cook's scurvy grass) (Brassicaceae)

Abstract The discovery of a population of the New Zealand endemic Lepidium oleraceum (nau, Cook's scurvy grass; Brassicaceae) on Funnel Island, in the Centre Group of the Bounty Islands archipelago is reported. A single plant was also sighted growing on the top of Molly Cap. This represents the first record of a vascular plant species on the inhospitable Bounty Islands archipelago. The location of the plants in sheltered, north‐facing crevices may explain why they were overlooked by previous visits. However, given this population's morphological and genetic affinities to southern South Island and Stewart Island populations of L. oleraceum sens, str. rather than to forms of that species known from the nearby Antipodes Islands archipelago, it is more likely that this is a recent colonisation from that part of New Zealand.
