A conscientious citizen could look for several other benefits from trees around him and should get involved in the upkeep and conservation of trees. Knowing the trees by their names could be an initial step in this direction and is basic to environment education.

This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Systematic List of the Trees, Shrubs and Woody-Climbers of the Bombay Presidency The following list contains the botanical names and principal synonyms of the trees, shrubs and woody climbers, indigenous in the Bombay Presidency and Sind. Vernacular names have as far as possible been added. A synopsis of the natural orders and keys to the genera and species will assist Forest and other officers to refer to the various authors quoted, for detailed information. The sequence of the genera and species in the Flora of British India of Hooker has been followed throughout this list. The F1. Br. I. Is now nearly complete, as far as regards the trees and woody plants of India; only the palms and bamboos remain to be done. Speci. Mens of most of the species, mentioned in this list, have been sent to the herbarium of the Botanic Gardens of Calcutta; whilst many of the critical species have been referred to Kew for deter. Mination. The Konkan is the moist region of varying breadth, lying along the coast from Bombay southwards. The adjacent hills or ghats, with a heavy rainfall, are referred to as the Konkan ghats. The Deccan includes Khandesh and the other dry districts of the presidency. Sind and North Kanara are referred to separately by name. North Kanara is a very important forest region of three thousand square miles of more or less continuous jungle. A num ber of plants not hitherto found in this Presidency, also several new species, are included in this list, which it is hoped may form the framework of a future Forest Flora of the Bombay Presidency.

Download or read book The Trees Shrubs and Woody Climbers of the Bombay Presidency Classic Reprint written by William Alexander Talbot and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Trees, Shrubs, and Woody-Climbers of the Bombay Presidency The first edition of this work was published early in 1894, eight years ago. Since then a number of trees, shrubs and climbers, new to the Bombay presidency and some new to science, have. Been discovered and included herein. Additional matter about distribution, bark, woods and economic products, along with a large number of vernacular (principally Kanarese) names, has been also added. At the same time numerous typographical and other errors have been as carefully as possible eliminated. The synopsis of Natural Orders and the keys to the genera and Species have been recast and arranged so that the reader may now be enabled to more easily determine the names of the trees, &c., found in the Bombay forests. This edition, entirely re - written and revised, con tains a fairly correct list of the indigenous ligneous vegetation of the presidency, and it may reasonably be hoped that by the addition of the botanical descriptions of the species and of the more important sylvicul tural and physiological facts relating to the principal indigenous timber trees, the next edition will expand into a handy Bombay Forest Flora. Our limited knowledge of the life histories of the large number of plants included in an Indian local forest flora as well as the small number of botanical workers in 'the field, effectually prevent the writing of a work like _mathieu's Flore Forestiere, de la France, a model of its kind. A hand-book on the lines of Brandis' Flora of N orth-wes'tern and Central India, with a companion volume of convenient sized plates of a large proportion of the species described, is, however, within our reach and hopes of practical accomplishment. The synonomy and citations are, as in the first edition, for the most part restricted to Indian forest literature and to Sir J. Hooker's Flora of British India, which latter work was not completed when the first edition of this book was published. In conclu sion, the author has to thank the Superintendents of the Royal Botanical Gardens, Sibpore, Calcutta, and the Curators of the Kew Establishment for their ever ready and kind assistance in naming critical and other species of plants referred to them. He also wishes to gratefully acknow ledge the kindness of the Bombay Government in allowing this book to be printed at public expense.

Book excerpt: A native of Bombay, Suketu Mehta gives us an insider’s view of this stunning metropolis. He approaches the city from unexpected angles, taking us into the criminal underworld of rival Muslim and Hindu gangs, following the life of a bar dancer raised amid poverty and abuse, opening the door into the inner sanctums of Bollywood, and delving into the stories of the countless villagers who come in search of a better life and end up living on the sidewalks. As each individual story unfolds, Mehta also recounts his own efforts to make a home in Bombay after more than twenty years abroad. Candid, impassioned, funny, and heartrending, Maximum City is a revelation of an ancient and ever-changing world.
