Although the unique flora of the Socotra Archipelago with its high
degree of endemism has received much attention recently, little
information is available on the vegetation and related ecological
aspects. Based on their extensive field experience of the region,
the authors have assimilated a vast amount of knowledge to produce
this book, which gives a detailed insight into the plant ecology of
Socotra, designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2008. The
book is divided into seven chapters. After a brief introduction and
overviews of important abiotic features, various aspects of the
vascular flora are presented in Chapter 4, together with accounts
of the bryophyte and lichen flora. Ecology and adaptive strategies
of the plants are dealt with in Chapter 5, and Chapter 6 gives a
concise description of the main vegetation units. Finally,
important management issues of the vegetation are discussed, an
essential topic to ensure preservation of the natural heritage of
the archipelago.
