Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of the Flora of Extratropical South Australia: Containing the Flowering Plants and Ferns This work is intended for those who have mastered the elements of botany and who wish to be acquainted, as rapidly and readily as may be, with the name and systematic position of any our of Native Plants. It is purposely kept brief, and, though too abridged to serve as a sole source of information, yet it is issued to meet the need of a handy work of reference, since the Flora Australiensis is too bulky and too expensive. The plan of the Key is adopted chiefly from the Flora Australiensis, and a little practice will suffice to enable the tyro to make use of it, especially if he select at first a few known species. "The student having a plant to determine, will first take the general table of Natural Orders, and examining his plant at each step to see which alternative agrees with it, will be led on to the Order to which it belongs. If it agrees, he will follow the same course with the table of the genera of that Order, and again with the table of species of the genus. But in each case, if he finds that his plant does not agree with the description of the genus or species to which he has been referred, he must revert to the beginning and carefully go through every step of the investigation before he can be satisfied. A fresh examination of his specimen, or of others of the same plant, a critical consideration of the meaning of every expression in the characters given, may lead him to detect some minute point overlooked or mistaken, and put him into the right way. Species vary within limits which is very difficult to express in words, and it proves often impossible, in framing these analytical tables, so to divide the genera and species, that those which come under one alternative should absolutely exclude the others; in such doubtful cases both alternatives must be tried." Bentham. Special attention is directed to the characters printed in italics. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naturalised Flora of South Australia This is a descriptive and illustrated handbook of the alien plants naturalised in South Australia and propagating themselves spontaneously. Such plants form the greater part of our herbage near towns, and many of them have found their way into the far interior. The list also includes several ornamental plants which have gone astray from gardens or hedges, and all the "noxious weeds" which have been proclaimed as such by the Government. The subject is therefore of some importance, and it is hoped that this little book may be useful and interesting, not only to students of nature, but to country residents who may desire some botanical knowledge about the introduced plants which grow in their fields. No work of this kind has hitherto appeared in South Australia, or, as far as I know, in any part of Australia. The late Professor Tate, in his "Flora of Extra-tropical South Australia" (1890), dealt with only our native plants. Of the 368 plants here described, the countries of origin are as follow: - Europe generally (usually including Western Asia), 128; Mediterranean region (European and frequently North African Coasts), 92; most parts of the globe (cosmopolitan), 60; South Africa, 44; temperate South America, 15; Asia, 10; temperate North America, 6; Eastern Australia, 6; Western Australia, 1; Mexico, 3; Abyssinia, 1; Canary Islands, 2. It is noticeable that the plants which succeed best in the struggle for life are those which come from lands with climates resembling our own, such as the Mediterranean region, South Africa and temperate South America.

Download or read book Guide to Standard Floras of the World written by David G. Frodin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-06-14 with total page 1136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2001 book provides a selective annotated bibliography of the principal floras and related works of inventory for vascular plants. The second edition was completely updated and expanded to take into account the substantial literature of the late twentieth century, and features a more fully developed review of the history of floristic documentation. The works covered are principally specialist publications such as floras, checklists, distribution atlases, systematic iconographies and enumerations or catalogues, although a relatively few more popularly oriented books are also included. The Guide is organised in ten geographical divisions, with these successively divided into regions and units, each of which is prefaced with a historical review of floristic studies. In addition to the bibliography, the book includes general chapters on botanical bibliography, the history of floras, and general principles and current trends, plus an appendix on bibliographic searching, a lexicon of serial abbreviations, and author and geographical indexes.
