mollissima

A few of these hybrids may be superior to pure _C. mollissima seedlings_ in certain important respects because of hybrid vigor, but taken as a whole the best types of _C. mollissima_ seedlings are superior to the other blight resistant species for purposes of nut production.

Restrictions on hunting have also allowed recovery of species such as common eider (Somateria mollissima) and barnacle goose (Branta leucopsis) that nest in the high Arctic, to the point where it may be justified to reconsider opening hunting seasons on them.

Weed species, like old man's beard (Clematis vitalba) and banana passion fruit (Passiflora mollissima, P. mixta) are widespread and prolific in parts of the region, especially low-lying areas with milder climates like the Tarnaki/Wanganui lowlands.
