Book Description

August 1, 1981
This is the long-awaited second volume of Godfrey and Wooten's definitive survey of aquatic and wetland plants of the southeastern United States. It focuses on native and naturalized dicotyledons of the region and provides well-written, concise descriptions and keys for the identification of 1,084 species. A glossary of terms, list of references, separate indexes of common and scientific names, and nearly 400 well-executed drawings complete the volume.

The first comprehensive survey of the aquatic and wetland plants of the Southeast, the Godfrey and Wooten volumes will prove invaluable to botanists, ecologists, college students, government agencies involved in land-use management, and nonspecialists interested in the plant life and ecology of the region.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Professional's Must Have, March 24, 2000
By 
Renee (South Carolina) - See all my reviews
This book and it companion, the Dicotyledons, is THE professional's wetland plant identification book for the southeast. It is not a field guide but rather an office plant identification reference. It is not for the hobby naturalist unless they are prepared for the technical language and presentation. If you make your living identifying wetland plants in the southeast, you must have this book. Buy the Dicotyledons as well.

By 
Renee (South Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Aquatic and Wetland Plants of Southeastern United States: Dicotyledons (Hardcover)
This book and its companion, the Monocotyledons, are THE required books for all professionals who need a reference to identify wetland plants in the southeast. It is not a book for the hobby naturalist unless they are prepared for the technical terms and presentation. It is not a "field guide" but an office reference for indentifying plants collected in the field. It is worth the price if you identify plants for a living. Buy the Monocotyledons as well.
