Extract

Geneva's contribution to this meeting in Edinburgh is the publication of a booklet dedicated to Boissier (Burdet 1985) on the centenary of his death—an anniversary which coincides with the completion, or approaching completion, of a series of major studies on the floras of SW Asia covering much of the area of Boissier's classic Flora Orientalis.
