Essential, up-to-date, and comprehensive, Lombardi’s book is ideal for those researching or specializing in Celastraceae and its subfamilies. Previously, the Celastraceae subfamilies (Hippocrateoideae and Salacioideae) were considered a part of Hippocrateaceae. With all of the necessary key features, this is the latest taxonomic treatment of these interesting neotropical groups. Included is at least one illustration for each genus, and distribution maps for all species.
