This is Supplement 2 to our earlier tabulation of species known from Hawaii (Eldredge & Miller, 1995; Miller & Eldredge, 1996; also see Mlot, 1995). The Hawaii Biological Survey continues to work on the compilation of checklists and bibliographies; some short lists of invertebrates are included in this supplement, especially for those species inhabiting freshwater. This supplement should be viewed as a further interim report subject to future change. See Eldredge & Miller (1995) for definitions and scope and see Allison et al. (1995) for review of marine species. From literature and unpublished sources, 22,077 species have been recorded from the Hawaiian Islands and surrounding waters. Of these, 8,805 are endemic to the Hawaiian Islands, and 4,373 are nonindigenous species. This is an ongoing count of the biota, e.g., the completed checklist of the foraminiferans totaled 755 species, rather than the 1000+ in the original estimate. Particular interest has been paid to the freshwater animals in this supplement [see Table 2 for taxa and citations]. Hawaii Biological Survey is in the process of posting species checklists in searchable interfaces for the Hawaiian organisms on the Internet at:
