Description

[Sandakan], Government of the Colony of North Borneo, 1952. Large 8vo (25.2 x 18.8 cm). 528 pp. Original quarter cloth over stiff, printed boards. Typed label on the spine. = Printed, but not published in Hong Kong. Especially important because many Kalimantan plants and ecosystems are threatened by severe deforestation. It contains two lists of Latin (botanical) names, and local, vernacular names for each species, alphabetical for each. This is North Borneo Forest Records No. 2. Today, "North Borneo" forms part of Malaysia. An unnumbered printed errata-list is tipped in between pp. 8-9. Label removed from front pastedown, old owner's inscription on front free endpaper, otherwise a very good, clean copy.
