| This important book contains a clear, modern introduction to the cytology, morphology and systematics of the algae, providing a wealth of information for all those studying or working with these organisms. It takes in account recent re-evaluations in algal systematics and phylogeny, and these two main fields are the most extensively covered. The re-evaluations have been made necessary by insights provided by molecular genetics, electron microscopy, and new life history studies. The introduction gives thought about classification, evolution and phylogeny and is directly followed by the chapters on the main algal groups. There the principal characteristics of each group are outlined, usually followed by chapters on size and distribution of the division, as... |

| The three volumes of this publication contain the results of almost five years of fieldwork over a period of almost 15 years in the Simbu Valley in the Central Highlands of Papua New Guinea. Volume I, ‘The People and their plant-lore’, contains an introduction to the Simbu people, as well as a discussion of their classification and naming of plants [the latter very useful reading for (ethno)botanists]. The main part is formed by an annotated alphabetical list of Simbu plant names. For each vernacular name the translation or interpretation and the botanical determination are given. Furthermore tribe names (for names used by specific tribes), the name of the species in other languages, and (for part of the names) the Simbu names of cultivars are provided.... |
