Sasol proteas: A field guide to the Proteas of South Africa by Tony Rebelo
Synonymous with South Africa, proteas form part of a family that includes some 370 species of leucospernums, leucadendrons, serrurias and others. This book describes all known species of Proteaceae in the Cape Floral Kingdom and future afield, and includes diagrammatic quick keys and clear, concise text. Diagnostic features are highlighted, and a distribution map accompanies each species description. For amateur botanists and those who like to ramble in the fynbos.
Dr Tony Rebelo is a conservation biologist at the National Botanical Institute who specialises in the study of fynbos, and proteas in particular. Until recently he led the Proleo Atlas Project; Serruria rebeloi has been nameo after him. Colin Paterson Jones is well known for his exceptional talent for photographing the Cape flora. His books include Fynbos: South Africa's Unique Floral Kingdom and Namaqualand A Succulent Desert.
