Monthly Catalogue | NHBS March 2018 Monthly Catalogue Welcome to the March 2018 edition of the NHBS Monthly Catalogue, which lists all new titles added to our website in the last month. We have an all-round strong list this month with a number of books for each of the main organism groups. Ornithologists can look forward to Bloomsbury's African Raptors, a new Helm Identification Guide due in August. Oregon State University Press is publishing Penguins in the Desert in April, which takes a look at penguins in Patagonia. John Beaufoy will publish a second edition of their Naturalist's Guide to the Birds of the Philippines in May, while we have just received stock of the fold-out guide Costa Rica: Central Valley Birds. We also have stock of The Birds of Pamirs, Hissar, Alai and Tien Shan, Volume 1: Non-Passerines, Part 1, which is the first in a new large format, photographic avifauna series. Finally, of more regional interest is One Man's Marshes: The Birds of Lymington and Keyhaven, which is in stock, whereas armchair birders will be interested in North on the Wing: Travels with the Songbird Migration of Spring, of which we expect stock soon. On the subject of mammals we have Hair and Fur Atlas of Central European Mammals, and Chelsea Green's Eager: The Surprising, Secret Life of Beavers and Why They Matter, due July. John Beaufoy is publishing a second edition of A Naturalist's Guide to the Mammals of Southeast Asia: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, while Oxford University Press has announced a paperback version of Kalahari Cheetahs: Adaptations to an Arid Region, both due May. Herpetologists can look forward to three new titles from Chimaira: Amphibians and Reptiles of the St. Vincent and Grenada Banks, West Indies, the biography A Quest for African Herpetology, and the second edition of Chameleons of Africa: An Atlas including the chameleons of Europe, the Middle East and Asia, all of which are due this month. John Beaufoy is publishing the second edition of A Naturalist's Guide to the Snakes of South-East Asia in May, while Ivy Press has just announced a new entry in their Book Of series with The Book of Snakes: A Lifesize Guide to Six Hundred Species from Around the World, which is due August. For entomologists some titles worth mentioning are a revised second edition of Ocelli's very successful Field Guide to the Bumblebees of Great Britain & Ireland, and the Peterson Field Guide to Moths of Southeastern North America, adding to the coverage provided by an earlier Peterson guide to Northeastern North America. Both these books are due this month. We further stock The Butterflies of Afghanistan and a special issue of ZooKeys: Catalogue of Tenebrionidae (Coleoptera) of North America, both which have just been published. For those with an interest in fish and other marine life, Wild Nature Press has announced Guide to Manta & Devil Rays of the World for May, while Island Press will publish The Curious Life of Krill: A Conservation Story from the Bottom of the World in July. For botanists, then, we also have an exciting number of books. Kew has just published Identification Guide to Grasses and Bamboos in Madagascar, Pelagic Publishing has announced Mountain Flowers and Trees of Caucasia for August, and we have received stock of the Illustrated Flora of Cyprus. Oxford University Press will publish The Biology of Grasslands in July, though details for this book are still scant at the moment. And we have stock of two hard-to-find titles from the Seychelles: Vallée de Mai (Seychelles): A Primeval Palm Forest, a Nature Reserve and a UNESCO Heritage Site and Striking Plants of Aride Island (Seychelles). On the topic of nature and wildlife conservation we have a strong list of titles to announce this month. CSIRO will publish a second edition of Effective Ecological Monitoring in May, Cambridge University Press has announced Satellite Remote Sensing for Conservation Action: Case Studies from Aquatic and Terrestrial Ecosystems for July, Pelagic Publishing will publish Marine Conservation: People, Ideas and Action in August, and The University of Chicago Press revealed The Ark and Beyond: The Evolution of Zoo and Aquarium Conservation for April. We also have stock for Killing by Proxy: Wildlife Crime in the UK Today, while Beacon Press has announced a paperback of The Wasting of Borneo: Dispatches from a Vanishing World for April. To finish off, Bellevue Literary Press has just published A Wilder Time: Notes from a Geologist at the Edge of the Greenland Ice, which looks like a very interesting crossover between nature writing and a geology book. We have stock of Striking Nature of Curieuse Island (Seychelles). Windgather Press recently published New Forest: The Forging of a Landscape. And the very successful Improbable Destinies: How Predictable is Evolution? will be published in paperback in August by Penguin. As always, if you are looking for a particular title that we do not yet have in our range, or you would like to suggest a title for NHBS to stock, please do get in touch.

Kew is seeking to reach this target with two strategies: rapid digitisation of large parts of the collections using modern technologies and smaller-scale projects capturing more in-depth data from specific collections.

  • Notes on Dendrocalamus Longifimbriatus (Poaceae-Bambusoideae) from Myanmar Gamble (1896) Described Dendrocalamus Longifimbriatus
    THAI FOR. BULL. (BOT.) 32: 73–75. 2004. Notes on Dendrocalamus longifimbriatus (Poaceae-Bambusoideae) from Myanmar SOEJATMI DRANSFIELD* & K. M. WONG** ABSTRACT. Dendrocalamus longifimbriatus Gamble was described based on material with mixed elements. The flowering branches resemble young inflorescences of Dendrocalamus membranaceus Munro and the leafy branches belong to a different genus. Accordingly, D. longifimbriatus is typified by the flowering branches. That name is also a synonym of D. membranaceus Munro. Gamble (1896) described Dendrocalamus longifimbriatus based on poorly documented specimens. There are four mounted specimens consisting of two flowering branches and two leafy branches, all of which make up the original material for Gamble’s description. Proper labels are lacking, but there is a piece of paper with Burmese letters and the date 1/11/1891; there is no mention of a collector’s name or a number. Gamble mentioned that the specimens were sent from the Kyaukshat and Maliwón forest at the extreme south of the Mergui District, Tenasserim, Myanmar. The specific name alludes to the large auricle of the leaf-blade. In these two flowering branches, pseudospikelets are present, which are arranged in a fascicle at each node of the main or branch axes. Thus the inflorescence is indeterminate. Gamble stated that the inflorescence is too young for very accurate description, but that it comes near to Dendrocalamus longispathus Gamble. After careful examination of the flowering parts, it seems that the inflorescence and its spikelet resemble those of Dendrocalamus membranaceus Munro. The pseudospikelet unit has two florets; the upper floret is perfect, the lower is often imperfect; the ovary has a swollen, minutely pubescent apex and a long style with one stigma.
