Summary "Ferns of Hawaii National Park" by Douglass H. Hubbard is a scientific publication written in the mid-20th century, specifically in 1952. This booklet serves as an illustrated guide to the various fern species found within Hawaii National Park, focusing on the more common varieties that visitors may encounter without venturing far off established paths. The book aims to highlight the ecological significance and diversity of ferns in the park. The content delves into the fascinating world of Hawaiian ferns, providing descriptions of various species, their habitats, and their roles in the ecosystem. Hubbard categorizes the ferns based on abundance rather than strict scientific classification, making it accessible for casual observers. The guide includes detailed illustrations and notes on specific ferns, such as tree ferns and the distinct amaumau, emphasizing their unique adaptations to Hawaii's volcanic landscape. It educates readers about the cultural and historical importance of these plants to the indigenous people, as well as the need for conservation efforts to protect their native habitats within the park.
