A beautifully and lavishly illustrated, thorough account of the 128 ferns and fern-allies of the Southernmost extremities of the Australian subcontinent. For the Malesian oriented scientist primarily interesting because of the excellent view it offers of a flora that is close to the Malesian flora on the generic level (almost 90% of the genera enumerated in common) and at the same time very distinct on the specific level (hardly 16% in common).
