2007019894Portland: Timber Press 2007. Well illustrated small quarto pp 224 very clean internally black cloth with the slightest signs of use in a very slightly worn price-clipped dustwrapper. "Dogwood trees and shrubs are unquestionably among the superstars of the ornamental garden. Although cornelian cherry Cornus mas and common dogwood C. sanguinea have been grown in Europe since ancient times it is only since the age of exploration in the 18th and 19th centuries that dogwoods from the New World and Asia have ascended to the high thrones of gardens where their aristocracy remains unchallenged today. Given the huge popularity of dogwoods as garden plants not to mention the hundreds of choice selections and hybrids that have come to prominence in recent decades it is surprising that there has never been a horticultural book on the genus. Paul Cappiello fills this longstanding gap with this definitive treatment for gardeners and enthusiasts. Providing a solid overview of all dogwoods of horticultural merit the author provides more than two hundred stunning photos to help with the daunting tasks of identification and plant selection. He provides helpful details on cultivation combating pests and diseases and the fundamentals of breeding and selection. Based on years of research first-hand observation and interviews with dozens of specialists and nurserypeople "Dogwoods" is an unprecedented guide to the diversity of plants available in nurseries today. Written in engaging and informative prose this book will be treasured by generations of gardeners.". Cloth. Very Good/Very Slightly Worn. Timber Press Hardcover

2003014860Oxford University Press 2003. Illustrated with maps and charts octavo pp xii 266 paperback a very good copy virtually as new. No species occurs everywhere. Indeed the majority are absent from most places and where they do occur they are usually quite rare. Gaston discusses the structure of these distributions - the structure of the geographic ranges of species. Gaston is particularly concerned with the factors that determine the limits to a species' geographic range how the sizes of those ranges vary and patterns in that variation. Also considered are the distribution of individuals amongst those sites where a species does occur and what determines that distribution and some of the practical implications of all these. Both in a pure and applied context ecologists need a broader perspective on their subject matter than has historically prevailed. This book provides one such perspective. A must have book for any researchers and graduate students studying macroecology biogeography and conservation biology. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. Oxford University Press Paperback

2002011104Cambridge University Press 2002. A few illustrations and charts within the text pp viii 274 laminated boards a very good copy. The multitrophic level approach to ecology addresses the complexity of food webs much more realistically than the traditional focus on simple systems and interactions. Only in the last few decades have ecologists become interested in the nature of more complex systems including tritrophic interactions between plants herbivores and natural enemies. Plants may directly influence the behaviour of their herbivores' natural enemies ecological interactions between two species are often indirectly mediated by a third species landscape structure directly affects local tritrophic interactions and below-ground food webs are vital to above-ground organisms. The relative importance of top-down effects control by predators and bottom-up effects control by resources must also be determined. These interactions are explored in this exciting volume by expert researchers from a variety of ecological fields. This book provides a much-needed synthesis of multitrophic level interactions and serves as a guide for future research for ecologists of all descriptions. First Edition. Pictorial laminated boards. Very Good. Cambridge University Press Hardcover

2014010219Kota Kinabalu 2014. Extremely well illustrated small 8vo pp x 251 a very good new copy in dustwrapper. With over 3500 km2 of ultramafic rock outcrops in Sabah 4.6% of the total landmass of the state Malaysia has one of the largest surface expressions of ultramafic rock and one of the most species-rich floras occupying these outcrops in the world. Ultramafic rock occupies < 1% of the land surface of the earth and these outcrops are renowned as centres of high plant diversity supporting high levels of plant endemism. Over 1500 plant species have been documented on ultramafic outcrops around Mount Kinabalu of which a large percentage is endemic to either Mount Kinabalu or Borneo. Sabah is thus recognized as a major locus of floral diversity on ultramafic outcrops but the full plant diversity and ecology remains largely unknown due to a lack of focused research. Biodiversity in many areas of Sabah is severely threatened by land use conversion and because many plant species only occur in a single or a few ultramafic sites impacts on the ecosystems that support them could result in their extinction.
