Pa Woods 5.0 out of 5 stars This guide differs from them in two important ways: 1) The descriptions and pictures are side by side--no paging back and forth! 2) This covers a much higher proportion of species. This guide does lack info on the ecology of the plants. It has one purpose--to help you look at a plant and figure out what it is. For the breadth of species it covers, it accomplishes this purpose extremely well, very efficiently, and in a format that is easy to carry. Simple, but very helpful. 2) The range maps are like nothing I've seen before--each species has a small map just to the left of it's description which uses color-coded bands to show when the species is in flower. Most of the maps have just one color, but this is still a useful combination of related information. These small maps are greatly helped by the book's covering only the northeast US, allowing greater detail. The book's being limited to the NE would of course be a deal breaker for many. The only other possible complaint that I can see someone having is that identification depends heavily on the plant actually having flowers at the time. The key emphasizes flower color and the photographs tend to focus on the flowers and not the whole plant structure.http://www.lad1908.org/userfiles/bushmaster-m4-a2-manual.xml

However, I'm not sure what an effective and efficient alternative would be.The number of pages I've listed do not include the appendix, glossary, bibliography, or index. Ordered by colors with page edges colored for easy use. Photos sometimes require use of a magnifying glass to see the detail. Many photos do not show the overall plant, or they show a distant view of the overall plant with no detail of what the flower or leaf looks like. Ordered by colors. The page edges are not colored but a color bar is found just inside of the left-hand page. 2 or 3 photos of different plants are shown on each of the photo pages, typically 3. Text describing each plant is in a separate section after all of the photos. Only one photo is provided for each flower. The text section includes range maps. Typically 1 page per species (some more, some less). Text description followed by photo on same or next page. Many photos contain inset showing leaf, seed, fruit, or closeup of flower. Ordered by flower color with page edges colored for easy use. Typically 3 species per page. The text description is beside the plant's photo on the same page. Many of the photos show the flower without showing any of the leaves. Some photos show a distant plant so no details of the flower are visible. Typically 6 to 10 species for each 2 page spread. A paragraph of text on the left-hand page describes the corresponding species drawn on the right-hand page. There are no photos -- just drawings. Very few of the drawings are in color. Often there is insufficient detail to discern between similar-looking species. Important plant attributes have arrows pointing to that attribute in the drawing. Some of the drawing pages are overly crowded with too many species. Typically 2 pages per species. The first page is a full page photo. The second page is a text description followed by 2 smaller photos showing details of the plant. Not all of the plants have obvious flowers.http://www.s2group.pl/userfiles/bushnell-1500-rangefinder-manual.xml Since it is not ordered by flower color, there is no easy way to look up an unknown flower, but the photos are great. Typically 2 pages per genus. The text description on the left-hand page is followed by 1 or more photos on the right-hand page. Ordered by plant type (broadleaf herbs, grasses, woody, shrubs, etc.) and ordered by genus within the type. Each entry contains 1 or more species but not necessarily all of the species within that genus. Photos frequently include the plant in various stages of the plant's life, or closeups of plant parts. I rated this book higher than my usual because of this. Since it is not ordered by flower color, there is no easy way to look up an unknown flower. If you find a close match in some other ID book, you could use the index in this book to find better photos to verify your result. A paragraph of text on the left-hand page may describe one of the species drawn on the right-hand page. Some paragraphs have no corresponding drawing. Not all photos show the leaf. Few photos show fruit or seed. Not all photos show the flower very clearly. Not ordered by flower color and thus no easy way to look up an unknown flower.Maybe, but Steve Clemants, who was a student of the Garden, did know the local botany; although he's missed, we have his guide. And we have Carol Gracie, who continues to publish popular guides to the Botany of the Northeast. I use this guide in combination with various other popular guides to identify wild flowers in New Hampshire. The photography in this guide is outstanding, as is the coverage of this area and the descriptions. I like to use this guide in combination with the Peterson Field Guide and Rickett's beautiful Wildflowers of the Northeast. One can identify most of the wild flowers in our area with the firstd two, but it's often helpful to compare descriptions and illustrations in different guides. Sometimes I have to resort to my old Britten and Brown (1898 or so).https://www.thebiketube.com/acros-bosch-shu9925uc-manual-1 CLM includes long-form articles, events listings, publication reviews,Always appreciated, but not always recognized, these beauties can now be identified with Wildflowers in the Field and Forest, the most inclusive field guide available to the wildflowers of the Northeastern United States. Designed for easy use, the book features two-page spreads with descriptive text and range maps on the left page and color photos on the right. The descriptions are concise, but thorough, and the range maps show both where the plant grows and at what time of year it is likely to be in bloom. Plants are grouped by flower color, usually the feature first noticed by the observer. There is also a simple key in the beginning of the book that allows one to quickly narrow the search to a few pages. In addition to the more common and conspicuous wildflowers, many of the lesser known, and often overlooked, species are depicted. Over 1400 species are described with nearly all of them illustrated with full-color photos. While these photos generally show the flowers of the plant, insets of leaves and occasionally fruits are often included as well. A bar on each photo allows users to accurately judge the actual size of each flower.

It's not cheap, but the hundreds of color pictures and maps are indispensable. There is not much beyond basic information about each plant. But, this is a plant identification book, and such expanded info is is not within its scope (and if included would make it very heavy to haul around!). Once you've ID'd a plant using this book, you can make a note and then learn more about it elsewhere using other resources. 1 like Like Comment Ken-ichi 561 reviews 535 followers July 24, 2010 I got this to help ID some wildflowers I photographed during a recent vacation back East. While I was there I relied mostly on the Peterson and Audubon guides to the eastern US, which are decent, but lacking in some key areas upon which this guide improves. Like the Peterson guide, it approaches comprehensiveness for the region, and like the Audubon guide, every single species has a color photograph. Unlike either of them, every species has a range map on the same page as the photo (no annoying flipping back and forth), which also shows seasonality using color (not immediately obvious but learnable). Every photo also has a scale bar showing the actual size of the flower. Scale bars and range maps are excellent visualizations that more field guides should employ, especially botanical ones. The flowers are organized by color, then by morphology and family. The back cover has a ruler (yay!), but it's not in metric (boo). If you care enough about botany to learn your families, you will probably know the scientific names instead ot the ambiguous common ones. This is one area in which the Audubon guide has this one beat.https://www.festivalmarrakech.info/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/1628a852dd6a90---canon-l600-fax-manual.pdf Overall, this is one of the best pictorial botanical field guides I think I've used. I wish we had some regional guides like this for CA.Unlike other wildflower field guides to the region, Clemant's book has photographs of every flower along with range maps. Clemant's descriptions are easily followed and the language used is written for the neophyte not the professional botantist. The most complete field guide of wildflowers for the region. Highly recommended. nature-natural-history Like Comment T Crockett 678 reviews 4 followers July 28, 2014 Of the many flower and plant identification books I've tried, this one was the easiest to navigate and had the clearest pictures. I wish there was a book that was as well organized as this one, and had equally clear photos, but also told you a bit about the plants. What are they used for. Where did they come from. Are they edible? Is it a bad idea to touch them. Maybe that's too much to fit in one book.This book is awesome for identifying Northeastern plants by their blooms, organized by color and then by flower shape.

Yes, you can now carry a virtual library of field guides on your gadget. But if you really want to learn to identify stuff in nature — from birds to butterflies, oaks to orchids — get yourself an actual book. There among its pages you will find detail, order and the harmony of families. I read books and e-books with equality of enjoyment; and these apps do have their place in the field. What I’m saying instead is that when you resolve to learn a new taxon in nature, in all its diversity and beauty and complexity, you will advance as a student more easily from words and images on the page. Type in the state, maybe habitat, choose a petal or feather color, for example, and the approximate size or shape of your organism. The app delivers a list. No searching through actual pages of possibilities, no discovering and learning as you go, no seeing how the panoply of species fall into place, how they resemble or relate to one another in form or function. Learning nature with an app is like learning a language with a phrase book. You’ll get by, you’ll be wrong a lot, and your knowledge will be cursory. On a single page of the Audubon Water Bird Guide I could witness Don Eckelberry’s spectacular grebe illustrations — and I could see and feel what it means to be a grebe in form and function. As I leafed through Roger Tory Peterson’s flycatchers, I saw what made a Contopus a Contopus and how a Contopus was certainly not an Empidonax. And in Ann Haven Morgen’s Field Book of Ponds and Streams, well, those pages were the next best thing to getting wet in actual ponds and streams. If you already know birds, for example, but cannot recall the marks on Great Crested Flycatcher versus Brown-crested Flycatcher (tertial edges and belly, by the way) — it’s fine to whip out the app and double-check in the field. Apps are great for that. But if you are new to birds (or any other group), do not use an app for learning. Use a book. The apps remind me of weight-loss gadgets: so many under the sun, all competing for your dollars, none of them really that useful (except for the Sibley app, which I’ll get to below). Read your field guide instead; wander its pages on an expedition of text and illustrations and understanding. Many of these guides cover New England or the Northeast (where many of my readers and I reside). If you do not live up here, fear not: you will still find superb regional field guides — everything from The Butterflies of Cascadia by Robert Michael Pyle to Dragonflies and Damselflies of Northeast Ohio by Larry Rosche et al. Remember, these are my suggestions for your learning. I’ve listed web resources and worthy apps as well — but please don’t obsess on the gadget while you’re outside: you’ll miss a lot of nature, which isn’t very natural. Finally, this is a living document, er, web page — I’ll add your worthy suggestions. Send them by email. Thanks! Note, however, that unless you live in Pennsylvania, you won’t have species distribution maps to help guide your way in identification; and this guide may lack certain species or include others that you won’t find in your state. Even so, this field guide is so good that you might want to buy and annotate it with your local species. Also note that images in the book are from pinned specimens rather than living butterflies. As a result, you may want another field guide to help you learn how various families and genera appear, carry themselves, and go about their business in the field. Not only does this guide cover the essentials of butterfly identification and life histories for most species in the Northeast, it includes special accounts of some of the classic identification challenges, with field marks you simply won’t find in other guides. It is a dream field guide. But the strength of this guide for novice and advancing lepidopterists is its text descriptions of butterfly families, genera and species, and its inclusion of caterpillar and pupa photos. Overall, it’s a ton of learning packed into a single guide. Yes, the distribution maps cover only Ontario, which is a bit of problem if you don’t live there. But you can solve the map issue by annotating your copy with the species in your own region (with resources like the Vermont Butterfly Survey ). You’ll learn a lot in the process. If you’re in New England, I suggest you buy this book and the Ontario or Pennsylvania guide (or all three). With essays about butterfly biology and ecology, along with detailed species descriptions and spectacular photos, Cech and Tudor offer us a spectacular textbook to these wonderful insects (bring it along in the car when you head out butterflying). By the way, it’s out of print, so search for used copies. We’ve got the first big replacement to Charles Covell’s classic moth guide to eastern North America. (I can’t for the life of me figure out why Houghton Mifflin Harcourt doesn’t show this book on its website.). Get the identification guide and not the scientific version (unless you are a full-fledged moth fanatic). The species diversity matches that of northern New England fairly well. But the real strength of this book is its text and necessary illustrations of morphological characters essential in identification. I use this guide as the textbook and field guide for my Eagle Hill Institute seminar on dragonflies and damselflies in Maine. (Again, you might want to mark up your copy with extra or missing species from your location, using resources such as the Vermont Dragonfly and Damselfly Survey.) For all-around use, this is now the continent’s go-to field guide. By the way, coming in February of 2019 from Dennis (and Princeton University Press) will be Dragonflies and Damselflies: A Natural History. Even if you buy other Odonata books, buy this one as well. (Incidentally, Ed is now producing a Peterson field guide to dragonflies, which you must have when it is published.) I continue to use it in the field and in the office. We need look no further than this masterful suite of guide books, pamphlets, posters and web resources covering a region stretching roughly from Nova Scotia to Minnesota. If you don’t live in the Northern Forest (sandwiched between the oak forests of the eastern U.S. and the boreal forest of eastern Canada) these guides will make you want to move here. When you do, you’ll discover revealing and beautiful photography, along with efficient text, as your gateway to knowledge. Those ericaceous plants in the banner image at the top of this webpage come from the Atlas’ first major publication: Woody Plants of the Northern Forest by Jerry Jenkins. So much more is on the way — and we shall all be enlightened as a result. But don’t take my word for it. Visit the Northern Forest Atlas website, where you shall weep with joy or, if you haven’t moved here yet, with wistfulness. This website is among the finest examples of what the world wide web (otherwise littered with garbage) ought to be. Very much in need of an overhaul, but still very helpful. Otherwise, my herpetology colleague says the Peterson guide remains a fine choice for herps. But whether you’re learning or already in the know, the Sibley Guide to Birds is simply a masterpiece. Sibley surrounds illustrations with snippets of essential text pointing out crucial field marks. Short essays cover key birding challenges. If you travel, buy the single volume for all of North America (but lift it with your knees, not your back). Get the second edition. Two smaller volumes (with smaller images, sometimes painfully too small) cover birds of the east or the west. By the way, when you do buy a birding app, get the Sibley eGuide to Birds of North America — the second edition, released recently. It offers fewer choices among plumages, in a good way, emphasizing those we’re most likely to encounter. Be sure to buy the most recent edition, which is the seventh at the time of this blog post. In this series, owning both eastern and western volumes, with more mini learning essays in each one, is probably better than owning the single combined guide. Sibley’s Birding Basics is also great. Both serious botanists and casual nature observers will welcome this beautifully illustrated and expertly detailed guide. It is far more comprehensive than either of the traditional frontrunners and reflects current taxonomy. There isn't much she doesn't know about wildflowers, both the indigenous and alien species that grow in the fields, forests, and roadsides of theNortheast. Discussing nearly 1,500 species of native and naturalizedwildflowers, the book offers photos, maps, and text conveniently positioned on facing pages, along with brief, easy-to-follow plant descriptions. Excellent pics. The authors seem to have covered just about any wildflower you might come across in the northeast and for me, in the Mid Atlantic (NY). I have always found what I'm looking for in this field guide. Somewhat heavy to carry around but will fit most pockets and you will be glad to have it when you need it. If you are looking for a new field guide to fill it the blanks, or just one field guide, let this one be it. Verisign. Kayaking Hiking.
