Abstract:

Orchids are the most charismatic of lowering plants the the largest family with over 20,000 species. Many are naturally rare and others are thought to be endangered or extinct by habitat destruction and over-collecting. Orchids have a high profile in conservation but relatively little is known about their distribution and life styles. Author Harold Koopowitz gives the most up-to-date information on the biology, ecology, distribution, destruction and conversation of orchids that there has ever been.
