This series fulfills the urgent need for the synthesis, at the international or continental level, of the taxonomic and geobotanical information scattered throughout the world in innumerable herbaria and botanical papers. These volumes provide all the distribution maps so far produced by the Committee for mapping the flora of Europe in convenient library editions and in the format and livery of Flora Europaea. They thus form an essential reference linked to the flora itself, and will be invaluable to professional botanists. Volume III contains the Caryophyllaceae (Flora Europaea family).

From the point of view of plant geography, including various aspects of chorology, one of the prerequisites of successful large-scale synthesis of this type is and adequate flora covering the area in question, and providing a common language in respect to the delimitation and nomenclature of the taxa to be treated. This essential conditon is now fulfilled for Europe by the current volumes of Flora Europaeae. This new series of compendium atlas volumes makes available allthe distribution maps so far produced by the commitee for mapping the flora of Europe in convenient library editons and in the format and livery of Flora Europaeae. A thirds volume containing the caryophllacaeae is in preparation.

Numerous experts including ecologists, geneticists, paleontologists and climatologists, investigate the response of terrestrial organisms to changes in their environment. The volume comprises an introductory and a final chapter by the editors as well as another 35 contributions. These are divided into six sections: 1. past environmental changes - the late-Quaternary; 2. spatial responses to past changes; 3. mechanisms enabling spatial responses; 4. evolutionary responses to past changes; 5. mechanisms enabling evolutionary responses; 6. predicted future environmental changes and simulated responses. The overwhelming and unanimous conclusion of all contributors is that forecasted global environmental changes pose a severe threat to the integrity of ecosystems worldwide and to the survival of at least some species.

This critical Flora provides a definitive account of the native species, naturalised species, frequent garden escapes and casuals found in the British Isles. Full keys and descriptions will enable the user to name all plants occurring in the wild, plus some ornamental trees and shrubs. For the first time detailed accounts of all the large apomictic genera are given and many infraspecific variants included. Each species entry begins with the accepted Latin name, synonyms and the common English name. A detailed description follows, including information on flowering period, pollination and chromosome number. Separate descriptions are given for infraspecific taxa. Information on the status, ecology and distribution (including worldwide distribution) of the species and infraspecific taxa is also given. Clear black and white line drawings illustrate an extensive glossary and also illuminate the diagnostic features in a number of groups of plants.
