The Kinabalu flora includes over 5000 species of vascular plants and is one of the most diverse if not the most diverse flora in the world. The primary objective of this project is to provide an inventory of all vascular plants in the flora of Mount Kinabalu. The Plants of Mount Kinabalu 4 enumerates the dicotyledon families Acanthaceae to Lythraceae roughly half of this major group. This fourth volume in the series contains sections on the historical aspects of plant collecting on Mount Kinabalu a biographical sketch of two of the most important collectors Mary Strong and Joseph Clemens an analysis of the collections elevational distribution of the dicotyledons a list of cultivated and introduced dicots enumeration of the species and indexes to numbered collections. Information is provided for each species on literature habit habitat elevation range and specimens upon which the study is based. These dicotyledons include 83 families 430 genera and about 1575 taxa. THIS BOOK WEIGHS OVER 1.5 KILOS UNPACKED. Please e-mail us for the revised shipping charge. First Edition. Cloth. New/New.

2005003502Royal Botanic Garden Kew 2005. Dicotyledon Families Magnoliaceae to Winteraceae. Illustrated thick 8vo pp xiv 609 dustwrapper a very good copy. VERY HEAVY - EXTRA POSTAGE MAY BE REQUIRED. All volumes should be available - please enquire. The principal objective of this project has been to provide an inventory of all vascular plants in the flora of Mount Kinabalu. This Volume 5 completes the inventory with an enumeration of the dicotyledons in families in alphabetical order from Magnoliaceae to Winteraceae. The other four volumes cover respectively the ferns and fern allies orchids gymnosperms and non-orchid monocotyledons and dicotyledons in families Acanthaceae to Lythraceae. The Kinabalu flora includes about 5000 species of vascular plants and is arguably one of the richest floras in the world on the basis of number of species on a per-unit-area basis. Additionally Mount Kinabalu has been a centre of extremely active plant evolution and speciation and presents an outstanding natural laboratory for studying these processes. This last volume in the series contains sections on historical aspects of plant collecting on Mount Kinabalu a biographical sketch of Hugh Low the first person to climb and collect plants on the mountain a sketch likewise of Elmer Drew Merrill who described more new species in the floras of Mount Kinabalu and Southeast Asia than any other person. Volume 5 is dedicated to these two individuals. Also included are analyses of the collections a discussion of ecological associations consideration of dicotyledon life-forms lists of cultivated and introduced dicotyledons consideration of phytogeographical relationships a review of classification of the dicotyledons and an index to numbered collections. The main part of the book enumerates 66 families 364 genera and 1399 species subspecies and varieties in dicotyledon families Magnoliaceae to Winteraceae known in the Kinabalu flora. Information is provided for each species on literature habit habitat elevation range and specimens upon which the study is based. About 24000 specimens representing this group of dicotyledons were examined. These were collected over a period of 150 years 18512000 by about 300 naturalists explorers botanists and local people and are the basis for virtually all the accumulated knowledge of the Mount Kinabalu flora. The book has involved the collaboration of 15 noted specialists in various plant groups. The last comprehensive works on the Kinabalu flora were Otto Stapfs monumental 1894 account On the Flora of Mount Kinabalu in North Borneo and Lilian Gibbss 1914 work A Contribution to the Flora and Plant Formations of Mount Kinabalu and the Highlands of British North Borneo. Stapfs paper listed only 172 taxa in the families covered by this volume. Thus the present work includes an eight-fold increase in taxa since Stapfs time and has the advantage of being based on more than a century of advances in knowledge of the flora and improvements in the scientific methodology for conducting such a study. The project has involved new and innovative procedures for carrrying out floristic inventories and is serving as a model for similar projects in other parts of the world. Specimens have been examined in some 30 different herbaria including all relevant specimens at the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew the Natural History Museum London and the National Herbarium of the Netherlands Leiden Branch. Gibbs had about 360 collections available for the dicotyledons in this group in her account and Stapf had only about 236. In contrast the present study is based upon nearly 24000 specimen records representing over 14000 collections accumulated over the 150 years since Mount Kinabalu was first explored by Hugh Low in 1851.
