摘要

The Florida Keys consist of approximately 1700 small, narrow, limestone islands comprised of mangrove swamps, tropical hammocks, and pine rocklands. These islands form a gentle arc southwesterly for ca. 220 km from the southeastern tip of peninsular Florida. A sea-level fall that began ca. 100,000 years ago is believed to be responsible for the distribution of a large part of the Pleistocene coral reef system and exposure of the Florida Keys (Randazzo and Halley 1997). Around 18,000 years ago when the sea level was >100 m lower than present day (Lidz and Shinn 1991), Florida was nearly twice its present size, and dry land extended from the present Florida mainland to the Dry Tortugas (MacNeil 1950; Hoffmeister and Multer 1968), allowing plants and animals to expand their ranges into previously unreachable areas. Subsequent melting of glaciers has caused sea level rise, and the exposed Keys are now elevated 1-6 m (highest is Windley Key) above mean sea level (Hoffmeister and Multer 1968; Randazzo and Halley 1997). Today, clear, shallow water and tens of thousands of hectares of sea grass beds and mangrove forests surround the low-elevation Florida Keys.
