Extract

The Royal Society Expedition to southern Chile, 1958-59, was concerned with a study of the area known as Archiplata (Kuschel, 1960), the southwest part of South America which formed an isolated land mass in the Tertiary and which is the part of the Neotropical region showing affinities with New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, the islands of the South Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans, and the Juan Fernandez Islands.
