Synopsis The Vegetation of the Maltese Islands by : Salvatore Brullo
This book discusses the remarkable plant diversity of the Maltese Archipelago. Despite its relatively small area and long-term human exploitation, many different plant communities occur in this territory. The book presents phytosociological investigations, together with taxonomical studies, which have been conducted over more than forty years, highlighting the unique features of this central Mediterranean insular ecosystem. It also describes the phytosociological role played by several narrow endemic or phytogeographically relevant taxa and introduces many phytocoenoses exclusively growing in the archipelago. The study integrates the palaeogeographic issues linked to the ancient and intriguing history of the different civilizations that succeeded on the islands for thousands of years. The book also focuses on the N2000 habitats.

Synopsis Flora of the Maltese Islands by : Alex Casha
Flora of the Maltese Islands brings together the previous 4 volumes with minor additions. It describe over 730 species in full colour and contains over 1,500 colour photographs. The book can be regarded both as an informative one on plants and as a guide to the wild flora of the Maltese islands. Fourteen pages describe the endemic and sub-endemic flora in the introductory section. Other information includes about the habitats, flowers, leaves, the islands' geology, climate and soil, origins of the Maltese flora, how plants survive the dry season, how they disperse their seeds, pollination, fire and plants, and the water cycle. A flower-colour guide is also found. Flora of the Maltese Islands is not just another book on plants; it is a comprehensive book full of references and information on the wild plants of these islands in the central Mediterranean region.

Synopsis Landscapes and Landforms of the Maltese Islands by : Ritienne Gauci
This edited volume brings together a collection of works that comprehensively address both the myriad geomorphological landscapes of the Maltese Islands and how their evolution has been shaped over various time-scales by different sets of processes. Additionally, the work highlights how the small geographical setting of the Maltese Islands helped to closely connect these landscapes with Maltese society and as a result, they have evolved from stand-alone examples of geomorphology to important backdrops of Maltese cultural identity. Most of the contributing authors are academics – both local and foreign – with a research focus on the geomorphology of the Maltese Islands. However, the editors have also (and purposefully) chosen other contributors from governmental institutions and research agencies, who complement the geomorphological research with their proactive work in selected case studies on Maltese landscapes.

Synopsis The Top 50 Mediterranean Island Plants by : Bertrand de Montmollin
The flora of the Mediterranean islands includes many rare and localized species unique to the islands. Some of these are particularly threatened with extinction due to various pressures caused by people and their activities in Mediterranean ecosystems. It includes 50 descriptive sheets of species which are especially threatened, based on the IUCN Red List criteria. Each sheet gives a description of the species with illustrations and maps, emphasizing the threats to the species, existing conservation measures and additional measures needed for their conservation. Aimed at the layman, the text is easily accessible to the non-botanist.
