Conservation Checklist Of The Trees Of Uganda

This is the first publication of its kind for Uganda and provides up-to-date names and synonymy on over 800 species. A conservation assessment is given for each species, and for the 'vulnerable' species, a full page treatment includes a description, illustration, distribution map, graph on flowering/fruiting times, with notes on threats and habitat. This publication will be useful for botanists, conservation workers and CBD enforcers.

This book is a guide for the identification of the indigenous forest trees of Uganda. It will be useful for those who wish to contribute towards the conservation of the forests or to plant indigenous trees. Information is provided on how to propagate and cultivate about 80 of the most valuable species. The book will be invaluable for botanists, foresters, rural development workers and members of the general public concerned about contributing to conservation and sustainable development in Uganda. Many of the species grow in neighbouring countries, so the book has relevance there too.
