AUSTRALIAN FLORA West Australiana

This locally-produced guide provides a wealth of information on each of the 159 naturally-occurring eucalypt species found in the WA wheatbelt – many never described before.

Compiled especially to assist the layperson or the beginner in the identification of eucalypts, this book features more than 1300 detailed colour photographs, meticulously compiled distribution maps and a “special features” section for each species, providing a summary of its most readily recognisable characteristics.

The descriptions are complemented by plenty of background information for each species, including related species, history of the use, discovery and identification of each plant, explanations for their scientific and common names, and other points of interest.
