Plants of Angola: Strelitzia 22

Angola is blessed with an unusually rich biodiversity, with at least 6 961 plant, 275 mammal, 915 bird and 266 freshwater fish species. In the far southwest, the Namib Desert stretches northwards from the Cunene, inhabited by oryx, springbok and Welwitschia. This volume on Angola's flora results from the collaboration of 32 researchers in nine countries. Without the voluntary contributionsof these scientists from around the globe, the analysis, synthesis and documentation of Angola’s floral knowledge would have been impossible.
