Situated in the South Atlantic, some 500 km from mainland South
America, the Falkland Islands are a remote archipelago formed of
two larger islands (East and West Falkland) and over 500 smaller
islands. This book is the output from a collaboration between
scientists at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and Falklands
Conservation, who have been working together for many years. With
recent additions to the flora, there are now 181 vascular plant
species recorded as native to the Islands, including one natural
hybrid, as well as 14 vascular plant species that are endemic to
the Falklands and therefore found nowhere else. This new
comprehensive field guide covers over 300 species, including both
native and non-native, from 14 broad habitat types. Illustrated
throughout with colour photographs, each species profile includes
nomenclature, description, flowering times, native status,
distribution, habitat, abundance, legal protection, Red List status
and invasive notes.
