Description

The three islands comprising the Cayman Islands (Grand Cayman, Little Cayman and Cayman Brac) support 415 native taxa in a land area little over 260 square kilometers, 29 of which are uniquely Caymanian. This full colour Flora of the Cayman Islands by George R. Proctor is a total revision of his first edition. While still being a classic flora, 250 line illustrations and over 400 colour photographs illustrate the majority of species most likely to be encountered. Thus, it satisfies the needs of the professional botanist, while providing the non-expert and eco-traveler with an accessible, informative field guide.
