The study of flowers provides a unique insight into the biology and evolution of flowering plants as a whole, but most work has tended to concentrate on flowers of temperate regions. This volume, in contrast, concentrates on tropical flowers, and covers floral organisation, construction, adaptations to pollinators, structure, and evolution.
`This is an ambitious book, and an excellent one. It does a superb job of integrating floral morphology, development, evolution and ecology, and will be essential reading for anyone interested in these subjects for a long time to come' - TREE.
