Image NothofagusFusca.jpg thumb right 240px Nothofagus fusca , New Zealand The Antarctic flora is a distinct community of vascular plant s which evolved millions of years ago on the supercontinent of Gondwana , and is now found on several separate areas of the Southern Hemisphere , including southern South America , southernmost Africa , New Zealand , Australia and New Caledonia . Based on the similarities in their flora, botanist Ronald Good identified a separate Antarctic Floristic Kingdom , that included southern South America, New Zealand, and some southern island groups. Good identified Australia as its own floristic kingdom, and included New Guinea and New Caledonia in the Paleotropical floristic kingdom, because of the influx of tropical Eurasian flora that had mostly supplanted the Antarctic flora. The woody plant s of the Antarctic flora include conifer s in the families Podocarpaceae , Araucariaceae and the subfamily Callitroideae of Cupressaceae , and angiosperm s such as the families Proteaceae , Griselinia ceae, Cunoniaceae , Atherospermataceae , and Winteraceae , and genera like southern beech Nothofagus and fuchsia Fuchsia . Many other families of flowering plants and ferns, including the tree fern Dicksonia , are characteristic of the Antarctic flora.
