\"01\"Aldrovanda – The Waterwheel Plant\u00a0<\/strong>by Adam Cross<\/h2>\n

This spectacular 249 page work is the first comprehensive monograph of\u00a0Aldrovanda<\/em>, the extraordinary carnivorous \u201cWaterwheel Plant\u201d.<\/p>\n

Known for trapping aquatic prey between jaw-like lobes that dramatically snap shut when triggered,\u00a0Aldrovanda<\/em>\u00a0is a unique carnivore related to the famous Venus\u2019 Flytrap and employs one of the fastest movement responses known in the plant kingdom.<\/p>\n

This work offers a pioneering and detailed treatment of all aspects of the botanical history, ecology, evolutionary history, distribution and cultivation of this novel plant, and includes the description of a new\u00a0Aldrovanda<\/em>\u00a0colour variant.<\/p>\n

I have attached sample pages of these works to this email, in case you wish to see their content.<\/span><\/p>\n

In other news, Andreas Fleischmann\u2019s long awaited\u00a0<\/span>Monograph of the Genus Genlisea<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>is to be printed imminently. This spectacular work covers numerous little known, recently described and brand new<\/span>\u00a0Genlisea<\/em>\u00a0taxa, and represents the very first complete monograph of this genus of extraordinary carnivorous plants.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wishing you all a very happy 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n
