General Information

Cyanea copelandii ssp. copelandii of the Campanulaceae (bellflower) family is a shrub with a habit similar to that of a woody vine. The alternate, stalked, toothed leaves are 20 to 27 cm (7.9 to 10.6 in) long and 3.5 to 8.5 cm (1.4 to 3.3 in) wide and have fine hairs on the lower surface. Five to 12 flowers are clustered on the end of a main stalk 2 to 4.5 cm (0.8 to 1.8 in) long; each flower has a stalk 0.4 to 1.6 cm (0.2 to 0.6 in) long. The slightly hairy hypanthium is topped by five small, triangular calyx lobes. Petals, which are yellowish but appear rose colored because of a covering of dark red hairs, are fused into a curved tube with five spreading lobes; the corolla is 3.7 to 4.2 cm (1.5 to 1.7 in) long and about 4 to 5 mm (0.2 in) wide. Berries are dark orange and measure 0.7 to 1.5 cm (0.3 to 0.6 in) long.

» Life History

Habitat Requirements

Cyanea copelandii ssp. copelandii often grows epiphytically and is typically found in montane wet forest dominated by Cibotium spp. (hapuu) at elevations between 660 and 880 m (2,200 and 2,900 ft).

Movement / Home Range

Historically, Cyanea copelandii subsp. copelandii occurred at two sites on the southeastern slope of Mauna Loa, near Glenwood, and was last observed in 1957.

Reproductive Strategy

Cyanea copelandii subsp. copelandii was observed flowering and fruiting in December.

Other

Cyanea copelandii ssp. copelandii is distinguished from ssp. haleakalaensis by its narrower leaves. The species differs from others in this endemic Hawaiian genus by its growth habit and the size, shape, and dark red pubescence of its corolla.
