Hawaiian tropical high shrublands : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hawaiian tropical high shrublands
The Hawaiian tropical high shrublands are a tropical savanna ecoregion in the Hawaiian Islands. They cover an area of on the upper slopes of the volcanoes Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, Hualālai, and Haleakalā. They include open shrublands, grasslands, and deserts. Shrubland species include āheahea (''Chenopodium oahuense''), ōhelo ai (''Vaccinium reticulatum''), naenae (''Dubautia menziesii''), and iliahi (''Santalum haleakalae''). Alpine grasslands are dominated by tussock grasses, such as ''Deschampsia nubigena'', ''Eragrostis atropioides'', ''Panicum tenuifolium'', and pili uka (''Trisetum glomeratum''). Deserts occur on the coldest and driest peaks, where only extremely hardy plants such as āhinahina (''Argyroxiphium sandwicense'') and ''Dubautia'' species are able to grow. The nēnē (''Branta sandvicensis'') is one of the few birds found in alpine shrublands, while uau (''Pterodroma sandwichensis'') nest in this ecoregion.〔 ==References==
