Palawan Botanical Expedition 1984

This is the full collection of stories on Palawan

All the stories here tell different aspects of the vegetation and the island as discovered by the expedition. These stories appear on the relevant pages as well

  • Balanophora

A dense pole forest on Mt. Beauforts' western face and an open forest dominated by large emergent Gymnostoma sp. on its crest.

  • Mt. Bloomfield in the background

Occurring above 500 m on Mt. Beaufort, this forest type grew on 25 - 36  degree slopes with occasional patches of scree. Agathis populations were healthy, but at risk from careless resin extraction.
