Choosing this book

Who this edition suits

Best for: A botanist or experienced naturalist who needs identification keys for Madeira’s vascular plants.

The systematic descriptions and keys cover more than 1,360 species, including the Salvage Islands. Botanical drawings, habitats and flowering information support closer identification work than a short photographic introduction.

Consider: The 2016 paperback reproduces the 1994 flora; it is not a newly revised account of current taxonomy. Its technical keys and substantial size suit reference work better than casual browsing on a walk.
