This book describes and illustrates 80 of the larger, more conspicuous and charismatic tree species likely to be seen while travelling in the Kruger National Park. With the aim of assisting readers to make accurate identifications of these majestic plants, each spread contains photographs and succinct text with minimal botanical jargon. To aid identification, a series of maps demarcating 35 different vegetation zones or ‘landscapes’ within the Kruger Park helps readers to determine which tree species are likely to be seen in which area. Sales points: Ideal companion for exploring Kruger. Easy ID with supporting colour photos of full trees and diagnostic features. Minimal botanical jargon. Colour-coded ‘landscape’ maps with related checklists. Written by a leading authority.
