The wild Australian rushes of the family Restionaceae, as well as the closely related Ecdeiocoleaceae and Anarthriaceae, have long been notoriously difficult to name and study. Recent research has revealed these to be a diverse and fascinating group of plants, and has led to a revised classification with many new genera and species. This book synthesises the results of this research, and covers almost 150 species of 34 genera of rushes. The text features full descriptions, including major anatomical features, illustrated keys for identification, and incredibly beautiful full-page pencil drawings for each species covered. Hard cover.
