Book Description
The genus Drosera, known also as sundews for their glistening appearance, consists of some 200 species of carnivorous plants that ensnare insects on leaves coated with sticky, mucilaginous glands. The Pinelands of southern New Jersey host some of the densest and most spectacular populations of Drosera in North America. This book is the first to document in detail the spectacular diversity and adaptability of Pinelands Drosera, including unique forms known only from the Pinelands, unconventional habitats, and winter survival strategies.

Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
"We want to examine what the scientific evidence suggests is really going on when we eat food, and how we can eat and live in a way that best gives us the health benefits of a hunter-gatherer lifestyle while living in and enjoying the advantages of the modern world. We also hope to use the evidence to explore how we can increase our chances of avoiding chronic diseases, obesity, and other health problems -- the "Diseases of Civilization."--P. 7.

Languages : en
Pages : 556
Book Description
This book brings together information on the natural history, ecology and systematics of North American aquatic monocotyledons. The book is an overview of the biology of major aquatic species by compiling information from numerous sources that lie scattered among the primary literature, herbarium databases, and other reference sources. Information on more than 300 species in 87 genera of monocotyledons will be included. Recent phylogenetic analyses will be incorporated. Although focusing specifically on North America, the cosmopolitan distribution of many aquatic plants should make this an attractive text to people working virtually anywhere outside of the region as well. Key Selling Features: The primary source of natural history information on aquatic plants Comprehensive lists of ecological associates Synthetic overview of systematic relationships of aquatic species and genera Practical information for rare and invasive plant managers Essential guide to facilitate wetland delineation
