About the Book

A Systematic Vademecum to the Vascular Plants of Saba is a book to "Promote Botanical and Environmental Education, Scientific Exploration, and Conservation on the island of Saba, Netherlands Antilles." This book is a synoptic flora whose subject matter is the 771 taxa that have been thus far collected on the island of Saba. It is intended to meet the needs of botanists, ecologists, and others who wish to know which plants are now present on the island and which plants are no longer known to be present.
