Natural Hybrids Between Disphyma and Carpobrotus (Aizoaceae) in New Zealand

R. J. Chinnock

Botany Department, Victoria University of Wellington

Abstract Hybrids between the endemic Disphyma australe and two adventive species of Carpobrotus, namely C. edulis and C. aequilaterus, occur naturally in coastal areas throughout New Zealand. The hybrids are highly sterile triploids. Both exhibit parental characters although in size and form they resemble Disphyma more closely.
