A Handbook to Plants in Victoria: Volume 2, Dicotyledons

The present volume embraces all dicotyledons known to occur in Victoria, whether as indigenous or truly naturalised populations; 2290 species are currently recognised, 550 of these being introduced.

Together with Volume I (second edition in May 1970), it completes a recent analytical survey of the State’s vascular flora. The aim, scope and use of this handbook and the tabulation of details for species remain as already stated in the introduction to Volume I (pp. ix-xv), and the style corresponds closely.
