Floral morphology is key for understanding floral evolution and plant identification. Floral diagrams are two-dimensional representations of flowers that replace extensive descriptions or elaborate drawings to convey information in a clear and unbiased way. Following the same outline as the first edition, this comprehensive guide includes updated and relevant literature, represents the latest phylogeny, and features 28 new diagrams. Diagrams are presented in the context of the most recent classifications, covering a variety of families and illustrating the floral diversity of major groups of plants. A strong didactic tool for observing and understanding floral structures, these diagrams are the obvious counterpart to any genetic study in flowering plants and to the discussion of major adaptations and evolutionary trends of flowers. This book is invaluable for researchers and students working on plant structure, development and systematics, as well as being an important resource for plant ecologists, evolutionary botanists and horticulturists.

This book is an introduction to the science of plant classification and identification, or plant taxonomy. It defines terms used in describing a flowering plant and its parts and presents the characteristics of families of common flowering plants in the Philippines. For a clearer understanding, descriptions are supplemented by drawings and photographs. Plants commonly found in gardens, parks, and vacant lots are used as examples and are therefore readily available for study. A section is also devoted to the establishment and maintenance of a herbarium.

無聲的草木 綻放最好的香港 「胡秀英植物標本館」四代植物學家 翻山越嶺、精剖細描 為香港原生植物留下永恆的傳記 20個珍貴而稀有的名字,在遺憾失去它們前 認識它們越深,越能與它們共生 這些原生植物得以在香港這片土地上繁衍下去,不致滅絕 本書為《香港原生植物圖鑑》的第二冊。延續第一冊結合科學繪圖和植物藝術墨線圖的方式,詳細介紹了香港20種稀有及瀕危的原生植物。這些植物受到法例和名錄的保護,並在香港生態系統中扮演著重要角色。 標本館運用多種研究方法,包括文獻回顧、野外觀察、花果解剖結構研究和墨線圖等,去記錄每個珍貴的植物品種,豐富香港稀有及瀕危植物的基礎科學資訊,促進植物保育工作的進展。本冊更新增「掃描電子顯微鏡圖像」單元,把猶如萬花筒般的花粉和孢子的微物之美,清晰地呈現在讀者眼前。 This appealingly illustrated book is the second volume of Botanical Illustrated Guide to Hong Kong Native Plants. It presents a meticulously curated collection of 20 rare and endangered native plant species found in Hong Kong, featuring scientific, detailed pen-and-ink illustrations and morphological descriptions. This volume introduces a new section showcasing ‘Scanning Electron Microscope Images’ that reveals the intricate beauty of pollen and spores. This guide provides essential reference materials for species authentication and is of particular significance for plant preservation efforts in Hong Kong. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 香港中文大學生命科學學院胡秀英植物標本館團隊再接再厲,在第二冊中記錄下香港具特別科學價值的植物品種,內容極為豐富。包括古今的植物標本、鑒證學名、生境記錄、文獻回顧、墨線繪圖、解剖照片、電子顯微鏡影像,再配上科學詞彙和描述。全書糅合科學、植物藝術和教學的元素,非常適合作為生命科學研究及教學之用,亦是品種保育的重要參考書籍。 黃錦波 香港中文大學生命科學學院院長 With numerous well-drawn and precise botanical line drawings detailing plant morphological features, this second volume of botanical illustrated guide is not only a remarkable reference for botanical researchers, but also an interesting guide for plant lovers. Of particular interest are the microscopic scanning images of pollen and pollinarium of some species, providing a novel perspective to learn about and appreciate these rare and endangered plants of Hong Kong. I. 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
