Abstract

This paper discusses the family Araceae, emphasizing its worldwide distribution and the diversity of morphological and ecological characteristics of the family that have enabled it to reach such a prominent position with diverse habitats. Few families of its size have come to inhabit such a diverse spectrum of habits and biomes. The family has important habit forms and growth structures that have enabled such distributional patterns. The very broad spectrum of life forms it demonstrates is one of the main characteristics of the family, namely broad habitat diversity. This coupled with high species diversity; high rates of endemism and the presence of large numbers of unknown species (probably the highest of any family percentage-wise) constitute principal characteristics of the family.

天南星科植物的分布与生命形式的多样性
本文讨论了天南星科,强调了其在世界范围内的分布以及该科形态和生态特征的多样性,使其能够在多样化的栖息地中占据如此突出的地位。很少有像它这样大小的家庭能够居住在如此多样化的生活习惯和生物群落中。家庭有着重要的习惯形式和成长结构,这些都促成了这种分配模式。它所展示的生命形式非常广泛,这是该科的主要特征之一,即广泛的栖息地多样性。这与高物种多样性相结合;高的地方性和大量未知物种的存在(可能是所有家族中百分比最高的)构成了该家族的主要特征。
