"Field Guide to the Pitcher Plants of the Sulawesi" is a beautiful and colourful overview of the eleven species of Sulawesian pitcher plants (Nepenthes). Several species featured in this work have been discovered only in the last two years and are documented here for the very first time. This lavishly illustrated guide book consists of a short introduction to Nepenthes, followed by an overview of the species known from Sulawesi (complete with full page map). Each species is then profiled over two pages with the use of three images (most of which have never been published before) and a brief, but detailed text summary written in clear, easy-to-understand English. Concluding sections cover Nepenthes hybrids, conservation of Sulawesian pitcher plants, Bibliography, Index and About the Authors. The species documented in this work are: N. eymae; N. glabrata; N. gracilis; N. hamata; N. maxima; N. mirabilis; N. nigra ined.; N. pitopangii; N. tentaculata; N. tomoriana; and, N. undulatifolia ined.
