First edition. Folio. (8) 90 plus all 57 full-page color plates. Complete. Publisher?s green cloth with gilt spine and cover lettering. Abrasion to two spots on front blank (probably due to the use of eraser) else a very good copy. "The 57 handsome colour plates illustrating 456 species, which form the core of this book, were completed by the artists Amir Hamjah and Moehamad Toha, just before World War II. A provisional text was prepared towards the end of the war, but it required the stimulus of Professor van Steenis' retirement to finally bring about publication of the work.The text was entirely rewritten in the year prior to publication. It provides a very readable, interesting and informative account of the mountain plants of Java and their environment, covering topics such as climate, volcanism, altitudinal zonation, vegetation types with emphasis on growth forms, and the origins and relationship of the flora. The vegetation types are illustrated by 71 well selected black and white photographs? (University of Wellington).
