Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compilation of the flora and fauna found on Mount Menuang Gasing, located in Selangor, Peninsular Malaysia. The area, known for its ecological diversity, has attracted naturalists and scientists since the 19th century, many of whom were British colonials. This book contains detailed observations, colorful illustrations, and formal taxonomic descriptions of all species discovered on the mountain, from the tiniest insects to the largest trees. The author highlights intriguing details such as the discovery of two orchids and the oddly shaped Blastus pulverulentus mushroom, which are both new to science, and the presence of a population of a bird species previously thought to only occur in Java and Sumatra. This book is an important contribution to our understanding of the biodiversity of the region and will be a valuable resource for naturalists, ecologists, and taxonomists alike.
