Description / Table of Contents:
This volume - the first of six - launches the first comprehensive English-language flora of the Russian Arctic. Flora of the Russian Arctic translates Arkticheskaya Flora SSSR, the authoritative work of botanists of the Komarov Botanical Institute prepared under the editorship of A. I. Trolmachev and B. A. Yurtsev. This unexcerpted translation was prepared by distinguished systematist G. C. D: Griffiths under the editorship of J. G. Packer, Professor Emeritus of Botany at the University of Alberta. It represents the first time this work has been made available in a language other than Russian. This first volue of Flora of the Russian Arctic describes the thirteen families here listed. Together, the six volumes will treat some 360 genera, 1650 species and 220 infraspecific taxa, including many new combinations and previously undescribed species and subspecies. Detailed keys to genera and species and the original distribution maps complement the species discussions. The Russian Arctic spans 145 degrees of longitude, from the Barents Sea to the Bering Strait. The comprehensive content and accomplished scholarship of this work, along with the size of the area covered, make Flora of the Russian Arctic an essential part of every botanical library.
