Riassunto

This book is a field guide to the palms of Belize, with notes on local uses, both historic and contemporary. It is based on more than a decade of field studies collecting these wonderful plants, as well as interviewing many dozens of people about generalist uses—food, fiber, fuel, medicine and rituals, along with a literature survey of previous studies. It is greatly enhanced with the magnificent illustrations prepared by the noted artist Francesca Anderson. This book covers the 25 genera and 39 species of palms known to be found in Belize, with descriptions, illustrations and discussions of local uses. It is intended as a cultural and botanical resource as well as a guide for visitors to this country.
