Description

Panzhihua, International Academic publishers, 1999. Large 8vo. 446 pp. (xxii, 415, 10 [numbered 91.1-91.10]); numerous figures, tables and maps. Blue cloth with gilt title and vignette on spine and front board. = Important collection of papers on these curious Cycad-like Gymnosperms or "true-Cycads" from the family of Cycadinae, which seem to have arisen in the early Permian period about 250 million years ago. The survival relics have approximately 240 different species classified into three families. Cycads are the most primitive group of extinct seed-plants. This book also includes the ten "lost" pages of Voster's article on Encephalartos.
