The intention was to use this work as
a convenient means to access information on the mistletoes of
New Guinea and surrounding regions. The text and figures from
many works were scanned and converted to text using optical character
recognition software, thus some errors certainly persist. Because
these works are, in some cases, protected by copyright, this work
is not for general distribution or publication. Much of the text
derives directly from the work of Bryan
A. Barlow who is gratefully acknowledged
for his immense contribution to our understanding of this diverse
flora. Bryan often acknowledges Benedictus
Hubertus Danser (1891-1943) who provided
a number of critical works that delimited most of the genera and
species. To both of these "mistletoologists," I extend
my sincere thanks.Genera
