A comprehensive botanical reference work, Grasses of New South Wales presents an authoritative and systematic account of the grass species found throughout one of Australia's most ecologically diverse states. Authored by three leading agrostologists, the volume details the identification, classification, and distribution of hundreds of grass species, providing precise morphological descriptions alongside dichotomous keys to aid both amateur naturalists and professional botanists. The tone is rigorously scientific yet accessible, making it an indispensable field guide for ecologists, land managers, farmers, and researchers working across the varied landscapes of New South Wales. Illustrated with detailed line drawings and supported by distribution maps, the text instructs readers in the nuanced art of grass identification, covering native and introduced species alike. This landmark reference remains one of the most thorough and reliable resources available for the study of Poaceae in the Australian context.
