  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Natural abundances of oxygen-18, carbon-14, carbon-13 and deuterium were measured in&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Stylites andicola&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;, a terrestrial vascular plant lacking stomates, and two terrestrial plant species having stomates that grew nearby. No substantial differences in oxygen-18 and carbon-13 abundances were observed among the three species. The deuterium concentration in&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Stylites&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;was much higher than in the other species, confirming a previous report of CAM in&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Stylites. Stylites&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;was depleted in carbon-14 relative to the present day atmosphere, consistent with the proposal that it fixes CO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;derived from decomposing peat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
