Title:
Flora of New Zealand - Volume III - Adventive Cyperaceous, Petalous & Spathaceous Monocotyledons
Healy, A. J. & Edgar, Elizabeth
$45.00

While Volumes I and II of FLORA OF NEW ZEALAND were concerned only with native plants, Volume III describes the introduced wild plants belonging to the rush, sedge, lily, iris, arum and related families, the first comprehensive account of these plants since H. H. Allan's HANDBOOK OF THE NATRUALIZED FLORA OF NEW ZEALAND of 1940.

This book is an identification manual, intended for for agriculturalists concerned with weed control, for botanists making vegetation surveys, for anyone, in fact, who needs to identify weedy plants.

Historical background too is provided, for the plants have been an ever-increasing component of the flora of New Zealand. For each species the first published record of its occurrence in New Zealand is cited, together with the present known distribution. The mode of dispersal and other ecological data relating to the more aggressive species are discussed, and comments on their signifigance as weeds are included.
