Book Synopsis World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions by : R. K. Brummitt
Download or read book World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions written by R. K. Brummitt and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This scheme meets the need for a standard yet adaptable system of geographical units for use in recording plant distributions and arranging specimens. Because a purely political arrangement cannot meet all the needs of botanists, the scheme's arrangement compromises between a politically and a phytogeographically oriented system. It identifies geographic units worldwide in a four-level hierarchy, incorporating continents, regions, provinces and countries. Each geographical unit at each level has its own numeric or alphanumeric code. The scheme is presented in five tables, the recognized geographical units are shown in 17 maps, and a gazetteer relates over 2,100 names to the overall system.

Book Synopsis Botanical Results of the Sessé & Mociño Expedition (1787-1803) by : Rogers McVaugh
Download or read book Botanical Results of the Sessé & Mociño Expedition (1787-1803) written by Rogers McVaugh and published by Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation. This book was released on 2000 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an annotated list of about 7500 names of plants (mostly Latin binomials) that have been generated during the last 200 years as a result of the activities of an official Spanish expedition (devoted to natural history) that began its work in Mexico in 1787 and closed out its work in the New World in 1803. The relevant names, whether officially published or existing only as manuscript names, are those that usefully can be documented to some degree, in order that a researcher may hope to identify the plant to which a name applies. Identification of the plants may be possible if their original geographic source is known, if an associated carefully drawn description, detailed illustration or a preserved specimen is available, or from a combination of the above.
