Synopsis Historical Common Names of Great Plains Plants, with Scientific Names Index: Volume II: Scientific Names Index by : Elaine Nowick

Containing thousands of entries of both vernacular and scientific names of Great Plains plants, the literature that informs this exhaustive listing spans nearly 300 years. Author Elaine Nowick has drawn from sources as diverse as Linnaeus, Lewis and Clark, and local university extension publications to compile the gamut of practical, and often fanciful, common plant names used over the years. Each common name is accompanied by a definitive scientific name with references and authority information. Interspersed with scientifically-correct botanical line drawings, the entries are written in standard ICBN format, making this a useful volume for scholars as well as lay enthusiasts alike. Volume 2 indexes the scientific names of those species, followed by listings of all the common names applied to them. Both volumes refer the common and scientific names back to a list of 190 pertinent authoritative sources.

Synopsis 한반도 자생식물 영어이름 목록집 by : 국립수목원

우리 민족과 함께해 온 소나무의 영어이름으로 재패니즈 레드 파인(Japanese red pine)이 사용되고 있습니다. '줄기가 붉은 일본의 소나무'라는 뜻입니다. 세계적으로 한반도가 소나무 분포의 중심이지만 일본의 소나무가 서양인들에게 먼저 알려진 탓입니다. 이제 소나무가 한반도 중심의 나무임을 알려야 합니다. 우리 식물이 다른 나라의 식물로 알려진 경우 외에도 영어이름이 없는 식물도 있습니다. 식물주권의 확보는 한반도를 대표하는 식물을 '코리아(Korea) 식물'로 부르도록 세계에 알리는 일에서 출발합니다. 국립수목원은 우리 식물의 정체성을 확립하고 그 가치를 세계에 알리기 위해 한반도 자생식물의 영어이름을 새롭게 정리했습니다. 자생식물 4,173종의 영어이름을 검토하여, 2,500종에 대해 새롭게 이름을 붙이고, 특산식물은 한국이 원산지임을 알 수 있도록 하였습니다. 또한 우리 문화와 밀접한 관계가 있는 식물과 특산 속에 대해서는 한글이름이 그대로 영어이름이 되도록 하였습니다. 본 목록집 발간으로 그 동안 일본 또는 다른 나라의 식물로만 인식되었던 우리 식물들의 제대로 된 이름을 찾아주고, 이름이 없었던 식물들은 새로운 영어이름을 가지게 됨으로서, 국제사회에 우리 식물임을 소개하는 계기가 될 것입니다.

Synopsis Guide to Standard Floras of the World by : David G. Frodin

This 2001 book provides a selective annotated bibliography of the principal floras and related works of inventory for vascular plants. The second edition was completely updated and expanded to take into account the substantial literature of the late twentieth century, and features a more fully developed review of the history of floristic documentation. The works covered are principally specialist publications such as floras, checklists, distribution atlases, systematic iconographies and enumerations or catalogues, although a relatively few more popularly oriented books are also included. The Guide is organised in ten geographical divisions, with these successively divided into regions and units, each of which is prefaced with a historical review of floristic studies. In addition to the bibliography, the book includes general chapters on botanical bibliography, the history of floras, and general principles and current trends, plus an appendix on bibliographic searching, a lexicon of serial abbreviations, and author and geographical indexes.
