Ecology and seed morphology of endemic species from Kerguelen Phytogeographic Zone

Morphological descriptions of the seeds of eight phanerogamic species are provided together with observations on the dispersal of the seeds and the habitats of parent plants. These are discussed in relation to long-distance dispersal and proposals are made for future research.
