Threatened Plants of New Zealand, by David Given and Catherine Wilson. (DSIR Publishing, $49.95) More than 10 percent of New Zealand plants are considered at risk. This new guide will be welcomed by botanists and conservationists who have looked for a book which readily describes our threatened species. Virtually all the species are depicted in colour photographs and for ease of reference they have been divided up into a number of sections: trees and tall shrubs, middle sized shrubs, climbers, grasses and so on. For each species a distribution map is included. Notes on each species are full, with most emphasis appropriately on conservation status.
