This is the first Red List assessment of the entire Cayman Islands flora, covering all 415 species and varieties considered truly native to the Cayman Islands. It forms a comprehensive field guide to the unique plants of the Cayman Islands, with full-colour photographs of all the endemic and near-endemic plants of Grand Cayman, Little Cayman and Cayman Brac. The natural vegetation communities are also presented, accompanied by a technical classification on compact disc. This book is for plant scientists, ecologists, landscapers and developers, and for the visitor who wishes to understand more about the vanishing natural beauty of these islands.
