The book was first published 29 years ago, and proved a valuable spur to further research. Inevitably the quality of the individual systematic accounts were variable, but the new edition is a great step forward. Many of the accounts have been revised to a high standard by one author, John Akeroyd, and 350 new taxa have been included, hundreds new to science (20 taxa have been deleted).

It provides full keys and concise descriptions of families, genera, species and subspecies, together with bibliographic details for accepted species, summaries of geographical distribution, chromosome numbers and habitat information. Volume One brings the treatment of the first 79 families up to date. Keys and descriptions have been extensively revised, and many taxa have been incorporated, whilst others have been relegated to synonymy as a consequence of research. All synonyms are cited in the text. The Appendices have been thoroughly revised, and information on geographical distribution critically edited to give an authoritative summary of the occurrence of each species in 39 European territories.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eThe Flora Europaea organisation\u003cbr\u003e List of contributors\u003cbr\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Preface to the first edition\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements to the first edition\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e List of standard floras\u003cbr\u003e Synopsis of families in volume 1\u003cbr\u003e Keys to major taxa\u003cbr\u003e Explanatory notes to the text\u003cbr\u003e Text\u003cbr\u003e Appendices\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003cbr\u003e Maps.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Botany \u0026amp; plant sciences [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Botany \u0026amp; plant sciences\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Botany%20\u0026amp;%20plant%20sciences%20%5BPST%5D%22\"\u003ePST\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46005450473752,"sku":"9780521153669","price":45.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521153669i_cddb776b-a99e-4dee-a027-a471fe4d412e.jpg?v=1691372695","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/flora-europaea-paperback-9780521153669","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
