A Monograph of Leaf Characters in the Genus Abies represents one of the most comprehensive studies of it’s type, and includes nearly all species of the genus worldwide, their subspecies and varieties and also several of the natural and artifcial hybrids as well.

All morpho-anatomical features are presented in detailed diagnostic descriptions and in over 90 full-page colour fgures, including macro- and microscopic details of the entire foliar shoots and single needle leaves, scanning electron microscopic images of the stomata and anatomical sections. In addition to the precise documentation of all leaf characters, morpho-anatomical comparisons are drawn, useful to distinguish between quite similar species.

Thus, this book is of interest for botanists, foresters, horticulturists and everyone who is interested in this fascinating group of conifers.
