A flora of Rurutu and the Australs

An old field colleague, and excellent field botanist Jean-Francois Butaud(below left, in Rimatara 2004, photo: R.Englund) has just produced a flora of the Austral Islands (except Rapa, which is clearly a distinct entity), published by the Direction de l'Environnement in Tahiti in french, though it's nicely illustrated with photos and will be a great addition to our little library! It's also downloadable here (or so I'm told, our internet is really not up to it!).
