Around 2,750 taxa are described, many accompanied by tetrad-based maps showing their distribution within the county.

An essential work of reference not only for botanists and ecologists but also for conservation organisations, local authorities, planners and land owners, it will be read and consulted with pleasure by all those with an interest in the natural history and countryside of Sussex and the south-east..
