Produktbeschreibung
This volume offers distribution maps of over 2200 individual species living in the Dolomite area, presenting detailed records on the local range of every species growing in the area studied, from the Puster Valley to the Piave River. The data was collected on the basis of a multiple field observationscarried out over several decades. After dividing the area into approx. 200 quadrants, a nearly complete census of the species present was obtained for each quadrant. The evaluation and synopsis of this extensive set of data, which is presented in the form of a chorological atlas in keeping with international standard methods, allows the area to be accurately compared with other parts of the Alps. In addition to the chorological atlas and floristic inventory, a list of synonyms and toponyms of the three languages used in the analyzed territory, an expanded list of updated scientific names, and some helpful remarks on various Dolomites species are included. Lastly, the book explores how species can be considered as landscape bioindicators.

This third volume of the work Plant Life of the Dolomites complements the main volume Vegetation Structure and Ecology and the volume Vegetation Tables, which presents essential data at the plant association level.

Rezensionen
From the book reviews:

"This book aims to be more than simply a phytosociological description of the vegetation of the Dolomites. ... Each habitat chapter begins with a general introduction, including highly detailed descriptions with excellent illustrations, of the ecological and environmental conditions associated with that habitat. ... Each vegetation description, and indeed each chapter, is illustrated with excellent photographs and distribution maps, and overall the book is a beautiful object ... . it is simply a lovely book." (Rob Brooker, Mountain Research and Development (MRD), Vol. 35 (1), February, 2015)

"The book represents an extraordinary wealth of information. The layout with numerous beautiful colour photographs, instructive tables, maps, diagrams and flow charts ... is not only nice but also makes the information easily accessible and comparable. ... The book is the first comprehensive modern vegetation overview of a larger region, both within Italy and for the Alps in general, and hopefully will inspire others to follow this pioneer work." (Jürgen Dengler, Bulletin of the European Dry Grassland Group, Issue 24-25, November, 2014)

"The amount of information held here is absolutely colossal, written by enthusiasts who know the area well. Whether you're interested in individual plant species, or in seeing how the communities fit within the wider landscape, there will be something here for you. The love of the area comes through in the writing and there are even three suggested itineraries 'for getting to know the flora of the Dolomites'. A wonderful book to become lost in." (Peter Thomas, The Bulletin, Vol. 45, August, 2014)…mehr
