Australia’s Poisonous Plants, Fungi and Cyanobacteria is the first full-color, comprehensive guide to the major natural threats to health in Australia affecting domestic and native animals and humans. The plant species are grouped by life form such as herbs, grasses and sedges, shrubs, trees, and for flowering plants by flower type and color for ease of identification. Species described have color photographs, distribution maps and notes on confusing species, habitats, toxins, animals affected, conditions of poisoning, clinical signs and symptoms, post mortem changes, therapy, prevention and control. Symbols are used for quick reference to poisoning duration and available ways of managing poisoning. As further aids to understanding, poisoning hotspots are highlighted and the book lists plants under the headings of animals affected and organs affected.
