520 3 _aThe study of flowers provides a unique insight into the biology and evolution of flowering plants as a whole. The comparative study of flowers began in temperate regions and as a consequence most books on flowers are concerned with temperate plants. In contrast, this volume concentrates on tropical flowers which, while sharing many of the features seen in flowers of temperate plants, exhibit phenomena which are purely tropical.
