An illustrated and photographic Flora of Rajasthan book deals with 259 illustrations and more than 584 coloured photographs have added to the value of this study. Moreover, 25 new taxa have been added to the flora of Rajasthan. It is planed to publish the book in 4 volumes dealing with entire Angiosperm occurring in the study area from Annonaceae to Poaceae. The first volume covers general aspects of vegetation, key to the family, genera, species and subspecies, along with family Annonaceae to Rubiaceae, which contains 96 colour plates and 54 illustrations, where as the remaining families would constitute the volume 2-4. It is hoped that the book will certainly serve as an excellent reference material and practical guide of most of the species, especially of oldest mountains of the world, the Aravalli. K. L. Meena
