Parris, R. Kiew, R.C.K. Chung, L.G. Saw & E. Soepadmo (eds). 2010. Flora of Peninsular Ma- laysia, Series I. Ferns and Lycophytes. Vol 1. Ma- layan Forest Records No. 48. Forest Research Insti- tute Malaysia, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Malaysia, 249 pp. Price: RM80/ USD60 New book on ferns and lycophytes of Penin- sular Malaysia has been published as a series of Flora Peninsular Malaysia. The book was initiated to document ferns and lycophytes diversity by providing reliable and accurate accounts of the fam- ilies, genera and species found in Peninsular Malay- sia, with update nomenclatures utilising both mor- phological and molecular data. It is a new flora with important new infor- mation after more than five decades of the last Flora of Malaya 2 Fern (Holttum, 1954). This new flora covers about a sixth of the ferns and lycophytes of Peninsular Malaysia with accounts for 9 families, 21 genera, 100 species, 1 subspecies and 4 varie- ties. The new flora is illustrated by comprehen- sive introduction with conspectus of orders, families and genera followed by key to the families and brief history of the botanical collecting and observa- tion on ferns and lycophytes in Peninsular Malaysia. Four families namely Lycopodiaceae, Selaginel- laceae, Psilotaceae and Equisetaceae, which are always excluded in Fern Flora of Malaya are treat- ed in this book as lycophytes and true ferns. The families treated by local and overseas authors and included in Vol. 1 are Selaginellaceae (K. M. Wong), Psilotaceae (R. Kiew), Equisetaceae (R. Kiew), Osmundaceae (R. Jaman), Matoniaceae (R. Jaman & Y. Umi Kalsom), Schizaeaceae (R. Jaman & Y. Umi Kalsom), Cibotiaceae (A. T. Nor Ezza- wanis), Loxogrammaceae (R. Jaman) and Gram- mitidaceae (B. S. Parris). Each family is shortly described followed by key to the genera, and spe- cies, as well as varieties, if any. Some selected spe- cies of each family are nicely and accurately illus- trated with hand drawing. In addition, 18 plates con- sisting 67 beautiful colour photographs of the se- lected species representing the family are nicely arranged to make the book is more exiting. Among the families described in this vol- ume, Grammitidaceae is the biggest taxonomical change where several new generic concepts recently proposed based on molecular evidence are accepted. In Peninsular Malaysia Grammitidaceae is repre- sented by 12 genera and 52 species, compared to worldwide estimation (20 genera and over 750 spe- cies) Malaysia is rich in generic numbers (60%) but very poor in species numbers (7%). It is interesting phenomena to think about the Gammitidaceae worldwide. Aside from the useful information on the taxonomy and nomenclature, all species are shown with a distribution map and provided with an as- sessment of their conservation status that is usually not included in the Flora. The Flora aims to provide baseline information that is essential for the man- agement and conservation. Inclusion of conserva- tion status, along with taxonomic features, is to make the flora account relevant to policy makers, managers and general public. The new Flora is very useful to study ferns and lycophytes in the region such as Indonesia and western part of Malesian region. I definitely look forward to the completion of other volumes of this Series. The authors of the new Flora of Peninsular Malaysia, Series I: Ferns and Lycophytes are to be congratulated for this timely production of this im- portant volume. - Dedy Darnaedi, Herbarium Bogoriense, Botany Division, Research Center for Biology, Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Indonesia.

Manuscript intended for a publication should be written in English represent an article which has not been published in any other journal or proceedings. Every manuscript will be sent to two blind reviewers. Two printed copies (on A4 paper) of the manuscript of not more than 200 pages together with an electronic copy prepared on Word Processor computer program using Time New Romance letter type and saved in Rich Text File must be submitted. For the style of presentation, authors should follow the latest issue of Reinwardtia very closely.

On a separated paper, author(s) should send the preferred running title of the article submitted. Taxonomic identification key should be prepared using the aligned couplet type. Strict adherence to the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature is observed, so that taxonomic and nomenclatural novelties should be clearly shown. English description for new taxon proposed should be provided and the herbaria where the type specimens area deposited should be presented. Name of taxon in taxonomic treatment should be presented in the long form that is name of taxon, author's name, year of publication, abbreviated journal or book title, volume, number and page. Map, line drawing illustration, or photograph preferably should be prepared in landscape presentation to occupy two columns. Illustration must be submitted as original art accompanying, but separated from the manuscript. On electronic copy, the illustration should be saved in jpg or gif format at least 350 pixels. Legends or illustration must be submitted separately at the end of the manuscript. Bibliography, list of literature cited or references follow the Harvard system. REINWARDTIA Vol. 13.
