LUK Curator of Hong Kong Herbarium Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department 科學研究是根，科普教育為本。此圖鑑穩固掌握這兩條纏繞的線，同而不同、不同又相依的脈絡。作者的立意別具用心，以原生植物為主題，既是一個本地專題的研究，也能在進行科普教育時更讓人有親切感。此外，繪圖師精準而細緻地描繪了物種的鑒別特徵，使其與其他植物誌類型著作有所區別，這對於教學非常有益。圖版中使用文字標示各個器官的學術名詞，進一步幫助讀者清晰地理解該物種的基本特徵。本書科研、科普教育為一體，以獨具匠心的方式面向讀者，確實值得讚賞。 馬平 資深植物繪圖師、《嘉卉：百年中國植物科學畫》主編
