Flora of Malaysia: Illustrated

A beautiful introduction to the rich diversity of flora found in Malaysia. Special reference is made to the richness of variety of both native and introduced Malaysian vascular plants. The book is grouped in sections containing an introduction and several water-colours to represent the plants found in each section. Specific sections include: climbers; aquatics; mangrove plants; flowering trees; gingers; and montane plants. A unique and refreshing look at Malaysian plants - the water-colours add an individual style not found in photographic books. The accompanying botanical descriptions ensure that all the major features of the plants are available including nativity, local distribution and ecology, and socio-economic importance.Jones, David T. is the author of 'Flora of Malaysia: Illustrated', published 1994 under ISBN 9789676530448 and ISBN 9676530441.
