Field Guide to New Zealand's Native Trees. 2012. 1500 col. photogr. 436 p. gr8v0. Hardcover.

Compact enough to fit in a day-pack, this field guide contains detailed information on all native trees found on the main islands of New Zealand, including Stewart Island and the Chathams. This publication is organised in three main sections: conifers, tree ferns and flowering trees, and covers 209 species. A visual key to leaf shapes will help to narrow down the identification of the numerous flowering trees. Under each species, headings such as distribution and habitat, size, bark, foliage and habit, flowers and fruit lead readers straight to relevant information, and a panel of distinguishing features is a useful aid to quick identification. More than 1500photographs show the whole tree and its key features, some in very close detail.
