| The Curious World of Carnivorous Plants A Comprehensive Guide to Their Biology and Cultivation By Wilhelm Barthlott, Stefan Porembski, Rüdiger Seine, and Inge Theisen Translated by Michael Ashdown Hardcover Pages:224 >pp. 158 color and b/w illustrations, 2 maps ISBN-13:9780881927924 ISBN-10 0881927929 Plants that trap and eat animals have inspired awe since before the days of Darwin. Lured into the danger zone by optical, tactile, and olfactory strategies, the prey succumb to ingenious traps and face their doom. But unlike plants that temporarily catch insects for pollination, the true carnivores go considerably further: they digest them for the nutrients they need to survive in extremely inhospitable sites on land and in water. This exquisite, thoroughly up-to-date book, copiously illustrated with closeup photography, provides the first comprehensive listing of some 630 known carnivorous plant species, described in fascinating detail, with identification history, physiology, ecology, and an extensive bibliography. It is an essential reference for hobbyist, naturalist, and collector alike. |
