The Isle of Wight, located off the south coast of Britain, is home to a surprisingly large number of nationally scarce plants, and the variety of habitats, woodland, saltmarsh, sand dune, shingle, cliffs, wetlands, heathland and downland, make the flora so special. This book gives an authoritative account of the current and historic status and distribution of flowering plants, mosses, liverworts, lichens and stoneworts recorded on the island.
