The authoritative flora for Iraq, featuring detailed plant descriptions and botanical illustrations to aid identification.

The Flora of Iraq is the only flora for this region in the Middle East. It enables anyone documenting, studying, or managing Iraq’s vast and rich flora to identify the vascular cryptograms and flowering plants. In addition to the detailed taxonomic information, a large amount of supplementary data of general biological interest and economic interest is provided, as well as notes on vernacular names. Nearing completion, the series fills a major gap in the floral knowledge of Iraq.

Flora of Tropical East Africa

Solanaceae

Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, 2012

The Flora of Tropical East Africa is a descriptive, extensively illustrated account of the flowering plants and ferns native and naturalized in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, together with information on exotic ornamental and crop plants. At least one species of each genus is illustrated, and the bibliography and synonymy are sufficiently detailed to explain the nomenclature and taxonomic circumscriptions within a broad regional context. This part of the series is devoted to the Solanaceae or nightshade family, which includes both important agricultural crops as well as a number of toxic plants.
