Description: Handbook of the New Zealand Flora by Joseph Dalton Hooker Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Compiled by the celebrated Victorian botanist and explorer Joseph Hooker, this two-volume catalogue of the flora of New Zealand was the first major study of plant life of the area. First published in 1864, Volume 1 begins Hookers exhaustive list of species encountered during his three-year voyage. Publisher Description Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker (1817–1911), botanist, explorer, and director of the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew, is chiefly remembered as a close friend and colleague of Darwin, his publications on geographical distribution of plants supporting Darwins theory of evolution by natural selection. In 1839 Hooker became an assistant surgeon on HMS Erebus during Ross Antarctic expedition. The boat wintered along the New Zealand coast, Tasmania and the Falkland Islands, enabling Hooker to collect over 700 plant species. Drawing heavily on Hookers illustrated Flora Novae Zelandiae (1854–1855), this two-volume work (1864–1867) contains a comprehensive list of New Zealand plant species as well as those of the Chatham, Kermadec, Auckland, Campbell and Macquarrie Islands. As the first major study of New Zealand flora, Hookers handbook remained the authority on the subject for half a century. Volume 1 begins Hookers exhaustive list of species encountered during his three-year voyage.
