Generic Tree Flora of Madagascar (Paperback)

This is a practical field manual for the identification of the 500 genera of native and naturalized Malagasy trees. Identification keys emphasise vegetative and gross morphological features. All genera are provided with full descriptions, distribution information, key characteristics, up-to-date taxonomic references and over 3,000 Malagasy vernacular names and almost all are illustrated. This is the first comprehensive guide to be published in both English and French.
