Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents new or noteworthy Philippine plant species and discusses their relationship to existing species through detailed morphological analyses. This broadens our understanding of the dynamics of biodiversity in the Philippinesâ"a country recognized as one of the worldâs major biodiversity hotspots. The book adds 104 hitherto undescribed plant species to science, and provides new insights regarding the distribution and variation of hundreds of others. Among these newly described species, many represent genera new to the Philippines and yield surprising taxonomic relationships, reflecting the geographic and evolutionary isolation of the Philippine archipelago. The author discovered many of these species during botanical explorations to many understudied parts of the archipelago, emphasizing the significance of continued fieldwork in revealing the true extent of Philippine biodiversity and supporting conservation initiatives.
