Extractions: GEOGRAPHY: New Caledonia is an island group approximately 1500km (930 miles) off the northeast coast of Australia. Mountains run the entire length of the main island. On the western side, the land is relatively flat and forested by gum trees. The east coast is more mountainous with beautiful seashores fringed by tropical plants. Crystalline serpentine rock covers more than half the island. About 48km (30 miles) southeastwards lies Ile des Pins (Kunie), an island famed for its caves and grottoes containing stalactites and stalagmites. The Loyalty Group lies to the east of New Caledonia, the main islands being Lifou, Maré and Ouvéa. The remaining islands are the Chesterfield Group, Hunter, Huon Group, Matthew and Walpole.

The following paper was presented at the International Symposium entitled "Rare, Threatened, and Endangered Floras of Asia and the Pacific Rim" , held at the Institute of Botany, Academia Sinica in Taipei, Taiwan, 30 April - 4 May 1996. The printed version with expanded text has now been published in the symposium volume (Lowry, P. P., II, Diversity, Endemism, and Extinction in the Flora of New Caledonia: a Review.

Reprints are available from the author ( lowry@mobot.org or lowry@mnhn.fr ABSTRACT . An estimated 50 species face impending extinction or have already been lost from the New Caledonian flora. The threat to the flora and vegetation in the other principal habitats is currently much lower than in most tropical areas because of the island's comparative political and economic stability, but this situation could easily change.

Extractions: ESTIMATED 2000 POPULATION: LOCATION AND GEOGRAPHY: New Caledonia comprises a group of islands in the South Pacific Ocean. To the east are the Loyalty Islands, to the southwest the Isle of Pines and to the northwest the Belep Islands while the other islands are small and uninhabited. The island of New Caledonia is divided north to south by a central mountain chain that has formed deep narrow valleys and the coastal plains. The island has extensive forests and Mt. Panie is the county's highest point. There are many streams on New Caledonia, although most are fast flowing. New Caledonia and most of the other islands are ringed by coral reefs. Major Cities; Noumea 65,100, Mont-Dore 16,400, Dumbea 10,100, Paita 6,000 (1989). Land Use; forested 39%, pastures 15%, agricultural-cultivated 1%, other 45% (1988). CLIMATE: New Caledonia has a tropical climate that is modified by the SE trade winds. The wet season is from December to March when cyclones also occur and the average annual precipitation is 1,083 mm (43 inches). Average temperature ranges in Noumea are from 25 degrees Celsius (75 degrees Fahrenheit) in January to 19 degrees Celsius (66 degrees Fahrenheit) in July. PEOPLE: The principal ethnic majority are the indigenous Melanesian Kanaks who account for 43% of the population while 34% are of European descent, mostly French, 9% are Wallisian and 3% are Indonesian.

Extractions: New Caledonia has a well-established nickel industry (and around one-quarter of the world's known nickel deposits). Financial transfers from France are an important source of income - accounting for around 20 per cent of GDP. Of this, 80 per cent covers expenditure on health, education and public service salaries and 20 per cent on special development projects (mostly in the Northern and Islands Provinces - most of New Caledonia's wealth being concentrated in the Southern Province around Noumea). French assistance to New Caledonia and a pegged exchange rate (formerly to the French franc, now to the Euro) protect New Caledonia's economy from major fluctuations. Inflation is low (less than 1 per cent), though unemployment is high (and difficult to measure). New Caledonians enjoy one of the highest average per capita incomes in the Pacific (US$16,500). New Caledonia's investment commission, ADECAL, has a website at www.adecal.nc The New Caledonian Chamber of Commerce also has a website at www.cci.nc
