This study characterizes the zonation of coastal vegetation in six coastal sites in Malta. The vegetation sequence on the coastal zone is predictable and displaces in response to changes in shoreline. The halophyte Limbarda crithmoides was used as an indicator species to ‘locate’ the position of the sequence. The vegetation surveys were used to construct a Gaussian distribution model for th…
Pichi Sermolli’s work with his more than 2750 collections of plants from nearly 150 localities on the Lake Tana expedition in Ethiopia in 1937 was interrupted by World War II, but completed in 1947 at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, and the British Museum (Natural History), UK.
