This systematic treatment will help students, naturalists, botanists, ecologists, agronomists, range scientists, and other interested readers identify and learn about this unique and economically important plant family. The book describes over 300 native, introduced, naturalised, and adventive species. Comprehensive coverage, useful keys, and detailed species descriptions in "Grasses of Colorado" will make this volume the standard reference for years to come. Robert B Shaw provides overviews of Colorado's physiography and ecoregions and introduces the grass plant in plain, enjoyable text. He includes a checklist of Colorado grasses, a bibliography, and a glossary of terms that may be unfamiliar to non-specialists.

Reviews

"The introductory information is superb and includes a discussion of the importance of grasses, the physiography and ecoregions of Colorado, and an excellent discussion of grass anatomy and plant structure with line drawings. I have already listed the completeness of the actual contents of the flora, but there is also a glossary of terms and an index that lets you find species using either the old or new nomenclature. Isn't that nice!"--Aquilegia, the Colorado Native Plant Society Newsletter
