Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
Azorella polaris, commonly known as the Macquarie Island cabbage, is a species of flowering plant usually placed in the family Araliaceae and only very distantly related to cabbage. It is a megaherb, growing up to about a metre in height, native to the subantarctic islands of New Zealand and to Australia’s Macquarie Island.
Uses
A. polaris was used as a food source and a scurvy preventative by early explorers and sealers.[1][2] It was eaten by the survivors of the 1907 shipwreck of the Dundonald on Disappointment Island.[3][2]
Conservation status
It is classified as "At Risk - Naturally Uncommon" in the New Zealand threatened plants classification system.[4] On Macquarie Island, it was threatened by introduced black rats and European rabbits,[1] until their eradication in 2011.
