| Summary: | As the China-Japan collaborative research program on Antarctic biology, 1988-1991,two Japanese biologists carried out field observations and samplings near Great Wall Station (62°13′S, 58°58′W) in King George Island from mid-November 1988 to early March 1989 with the Fifth Chinese National Antarctic Research Expedition (CHINARE-5) members. One of the authors, a lichenologist surveyed the vegetations in the Fildes Peninsula, the Burton Peninsula and Nelson Island and collected lichen specimens for taxonomical works in his laboratory. He recognized 199 taxa of 64 genera tentatively from the area. Another author took part in marine biological observations at five locations in the coastal area off Great Wall Station and collected ice algae and phytoplankton specimens |
