I congratulate Shrikant Ji on my personal behalf on completion of this wonderful project, which was earlier designed to be a hard bound book. Present circumstances have resulted in conversion of this project to e-book format. I hope that this useful publication reaches to every plant lover..

Good news for tree lovers – Shrikant ji’s new book is out in the form of eBook – “Trees of Sahyadri: Leaf-Based Identification for 400 Tree Species of North-Western Ghats of India” is available on Google Play Books.  Download now … presently at 50% price! The book will soon be on iTunes Connect, too.
Sahyadri, the northern Western Ghats of India is one among the few biodiversity hotspots in the world. Its unique location offers diversity of habitats from grasslands, scrubs and mangroves to deciduous, evergreen and swamp forests. The tree flora in Sahyadri is represented by over 400 species.
Identification of flowering plants is conventionally based on flowers and fruits. This system was evolved by the famous scientist Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century. Trees are difficult to identify since they flower for a short duration and the season varies. Leaves are omnipresent and reachable unlike flowers in the canopy.
This out of the box leaf based field guide offers quick and easy navigation for identification of 400 trees of Sahyadri. It covers 333 forest trees, 24 mangroves and 43 urban tree species … read more at Google Play Books.
Best wishes to Shrikant ji for making available to us such easy identification field guide books !

Congratulations Shrikant ji for publishing this very valuable book for the benefit of Indian Plant Lovers.
