Summary
The Canarian archipelago has been sampling biodiversity from other areas, possibly since shortly after the formation of its oldest islands in the Miocene (Fig. 12.1). The sources, and intensity, of such a prolonged sampling process have varied in different epochs, largely conditioning the origins, makeup and success of the colonising stocks (see Figs 12.1 and 12.2). Because of the bias inherent in any sampling, and the variations in extinction and colonisation rates through time and space, the current Canarian endemic flora is an imperfect representation of the historical floristic links between the archipelago and different geographic enclaves.
