Guide de la Flore du Littoral Sableux Mediterranéen: De la Camarque au Roussillion. 2016. illus 280 p. Paper bd.

Summary: Aimed at the general public, this practical book has been designed to be accessible to anyone wishing to discover coastal flora. The fruit of collaboration between several managers and experts in coastal environments, it presents more than 300 species of seaside plants, from the Camargue to Roussillon.

Each species is described and illustrated with one or more photographs to make identification easier. Like an identity card, each page indicates its size, type, family, flowering period, habitat, etc. Species are classified by colour. The plants listed in this book represent a significant range of species encountered from the upper reaches of the beach to the backshore lagoons. The guide thus covers the flora of all the very different environments that make up the coastline, and thus make up the ecological and landscape richness of the sandy Mediterranean coasts.
