Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the most comprehensive compilation of data on threatened vascular plants ever published. It includes the names of some 33,000 plant species determined to be rare or threatened on a global scale. Conservation assessments were provided by the IUCN Species Survival Commission, the National Botanical Institute (South Africa), Environment Australia, and CSIRO, The Nature Conservancy, the Smithsonian Institution, and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, together with hundreds of botanic gardens and botanists throughout the world. The Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh and the New York Botanical Garden have made major in-kind contributions.The result of 20 years work by botanists and conservationists around the world, it is intended as a conservation tool, a provider of baseline information to measure conservation progress and as a primary source of data on plant species. Most importantly, however, it provides the building blocks on which to base a worldwide effort to conserve plant species.

Download or read book Rarity written by K.J. Gaston and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To say you are writing about rarity is to invite two kinds of response. Either one provokes a discussion of what rarity is, or some comment on the complex ity of the subject. The objective of this book is to explore the nature of rarity, its complexity if you like, from one particular perspective on what rarity is. Primarily, it is an opportunity to review, to synthesize, and to question. The book is an attempt to draw together a vast body of literature, to extract from it some general principles, and to raise question marks over areas the founda tions of which appear to be either absent or crumbling. A perusal of prefaces suggests that they often dwell as long upon what a book is not about, as upon what it does concern. True to such a tradition, I should state that this is specifically not a book about conservation, although in some quarters anything about rarity is viewed as something about conser vation. Nor does it contain more than a passing reference to the undoubtedly important issues of the role of genetics in rarity. Examples have been drawn from a wide variety of taxa. They are, nonethe less, somewhat depauperate in cases from marine systems. In part this bias results from the unevenness of my familiarity with the literature, in part it perhaps also reflects differences in the questions asked and approaches to the study of communities and assemblages in terrestrial and marine systems.

Download or read book New Lepidium (Brassicaceae) from New Zealand written by Peter James De Lange and published by PenSoft Publishers LTD. This book was released on 2013 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vascular flora of New Zealand contains an estimated 2400 species of indigenous plant, of which a staggering 83% are endemic. Nevertheless, despite the 244 years of botanical exploration there are still many flowering plants left to formally describe from New Zealand. In this issue of PhytoKeys the diversity of the endemic Cook’s Scurvy grass (Lepidium oleraceum) is subjected to a modern taxonomic treatment, recognising in the process ten new endemic species, and accepting six others described by past workers. This issue includes detailed descriptions for all 16 Lepidium species and discusses their ecology, ethnobotany and conservation status. A dichotomous key to the naturalised and indigenous Lepidium of the New Zealand archipelago is also provided.
