For readers with little or no training in botany, including general biologists and ecologists, park naturalists, environmental engineers, landscape architects, natural resource planners, teachers, and students in the environmental sciences, Tiner (plant, soil, and insect sciences, U. of Massachusetts Amherst) provides a guide to the identification of tidal wetland plants of the northeastern US and neighboring Canada. The guide contains about 700 species, with illustrations of 550 species, detailed descriptions of 350 species, an overview of plant characteristics, and a brief introduction to tidal wetland types and where to visit wetlands in the region. The volume is a revised and expanded version of Tiner's A Field Guide to Coastal Wetland Plants of the Northeastern United States (1987). More tidal wetland types are covered in this volume, and the scope extends to Canada's Maritime Provinces. It has updated nomenclature, adds species characteristic of tidal forests, and includes beach plants and more macroalgae. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
