A Monograph of the genus Microtoena (Lamiaceae)

The genus Microtoena is a lovely and enigmatic member of the mint family. This
new monograph is a comprehensive taxonomic revision, based on extensive field
observations, population sampling, specimen examinations, scanning electron
microscopy observations, statistical analysis of characters, and molecular
phylogenetic analysis. Detailed species descriptions are enhanced by 20 maps,
18 full page line drawings and numerous field photos. This is an essential
reference for taxonomists, growers, breeders and horticulturalists. Qiang
