Origin and Development of the Composite. 135 
hypothesis of an immigration of Compositae into the Fiji Islands 
from the east at a date much later than the migration from 
America of the ancestors of the Hawaiian endemics. The peculiar, 
insular endemic genera occur on the islands (Galapagos, Juan 
Fernandez and Hawaiian) which are much nearer America than 
Fiji. The last mentioned probably received its present Compositae 
after New Zealand had been stocked from New Guinea via Australia 
(see Chap. X). 
It has been shown above that the migration of most of the 
Compositae, and of Senecio in particular, took place along the 
mountain ranges. The dispersal of the Compositae must, therefore, 
have taken place after the formation of the ridges which constitute 
the main path of migration. According to the geological evidence
