Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native orchids are increasingly threatened by pressure from population growth and development but, nonetheless, still present a welcome surprise to observant hikers in every state and province. Compiled and illustrated by long-time orchid specialist Paul Martin Brown, this pocket guide to lady's-slippers is the first in a series that will cover all the wild orchids of the United States and Canada. Brown provides general distributional information, time of flowering, and habitat requirements for each species as well as a complete list of hybrids and the many different growth and color forms that can make identifying orchids so intriguing. For the lady's-slippers he includes information on 12 species, 2 additional varieties, and 6 hybrids. Wild lady's-slippers grow from Alaska, with the spotted lady's-slipper, Cypripedium guttatum, to Texas, with the ivory-lipped lady's-slipper, C. kentuckiense. Most of these species are easy to identify based upon their general appearance, range, and time of flowering. Answer three simple questions--when, where, and how does it grow? Then compare the living plant with the striking photos in these backpack-friendly laminated guides and consult the keys that Brown has created. Following these steps should enable both professional and amateur naturalists to achieve the satisfaction of identifying specific orchids in their native environment.

Book excerpt: Orchids have fascinated people ever since their discovery by Father of Botany . Theophrastus (370-385 B.C.). They are much loved but little studied as they are the largest, most complex and difficult group with nearest estimate range between 25,000 to 35,000 species in over 800 genera. Majority of orchids known in cultivation are, however, natives of tropical forests of Indian Subcontinent (mainly from India, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia). The Indian Bulbophyllum, Cymbidium, Dendrobiums, Paphiopedilums, Vandas, etc. contributing to develop high quality hybrids. Indian subcontinent is considered primary/secondary center of origin for Orchids found in phytogeographically interesting North Eastern region. The region one of the hot-spots of the world is the richest Biodiversity center of the Indian subcontinent. The authors have made an earnest attempt on most deserving topic. Bulbophyllum is one of the important orchid genera represented by a number of species in this region. This polymorphic and difficult taxa from taxonomic point of view was treated differently by different workers as the taxa are linked with each other in such a way that separation into smaller groups was difficult due to complexities in the group. The book nicely provides the present Status and Biodiversity of Bulbophyllum and allied genera of India, in general and Northeast in particular with keys to these genera, sections and species that were previously included under Bulbophyllum. This is the first consolidated, revisionary taxonomic account on Indian Bulbophyllum and allied genera. A total of 80 species of Bulbophyllum and allied genera are included in this book. The account is supported by 15 illustrations, 37 plates, and 28 tables. Table 1-28 cover monthly average temperature (maximum and minimum), rainfall, relative humidity (morning-evening), detail vegetative and reproductive phenophase data, phenological calendar etc. The book is also primarily intended for the categorization of the genus Bulbophyllum taking the characters of pollinia, seeds and karyotype studies. Chapter 1: General Introduction, Chapter 2: Biodiversity of Bulbophyllum, Chapter 3: Phenology, Chapter 4: Palynology, Chapter 5: Seed Morphometry, Chapter 6: Cytology, Chapter 7: General Conclusion.

Book excerpt: India Is Not Only Rich In Number Of Orchid Taxa Which Grow Profusely In Nature, But Most Species Are At Top Of The Ornamental Orchids. This Natural Wealth Is Yet To Be Utilized And Managed. Unless Scientific Conservation Measures Are Taken Along With Proper Utilization, It Is Sure That We Will Loose Most Of The Valuable Orchid Wealth That Are Of Medicinal, Horticultural And Aesthetic Values. The Orchids Are Habitat Specific And Their Trade From Naturally Grown Population Has Been Banned By Government Of India. The Clandestine Trade, However Is Continuing Without Any Check. The Desire For New And Exotic Colours And The Demand In Japanese Market, Future Sales Of Tropical Orchids Are Likely To Increase.

However, Commercial Orchid Growing In India Is Yet To Be Properly Organized. The Book Is Primarily Intended To Be An Useful Laboratory Tool For Those Who Wish To Make Carrier Either In Research In The Field Of Orchid Tissue Culture Or In Commercialization Of Orchids As An Industry.
