Professional botanists often need several years in the field to master this terminology, and it presents a daunting obstacle to the student of botany. The winner of the CHOICE Best Academic Books Award in its first edition, Plant Identification Terminology: An Illustrated Glossary, Second Edition has been thoroughly reillustrated and includes more than 300 additional terms. The best book available on plant descriptive terminology is now even better. The meaning of most botanical terms, however, is immediately apparent when an illustration is available. That is the purpose of this volume. Plant Identification Terminology provides over nineteen hundred clear illustrations of terms used in plant identification keys and descriptions. It also includes definitions for more than twenty-seven hundred taxonomic terms. Review: Good for beginners and more - If you need a book to explain botanical words in a concise, clear way, with simple illustrations, then this is the book for you. It has two sections, the first is the words in alphabetical order, the second is the words by category eg all the words pertaining to leaves. I purchased it originally for a botanical illustration course, but have used it since when I come across a new botanical term. Review: Seriously a GREAT Resource. - I purchased this book as part of a course. This is probably the best book for anyone interested in plant identification. In one section it is set up like a dictionary so you can easily look up unfamiliar terms alphabetically. In the other section it is set up by category, leaves, stems, flowers etc. so if you don't really know what you are looking for you can easily search by category. I got this book today and have already used it a bunch of times to refresh my memory on terminology. The definitions are scientific but easy to understand and read with really nice drawings to represent the term. Probably the best book in my botanical library. ## Features - Taxonomy, Glossary, Plant Identification ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #48,343 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #51 in Botany (Books) #171 in Dictionaries & Thesauruses (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 782 Reviews | ## Images ![Plant Identification Terminology: An Illustrated Glossary - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61f9QGO4TXL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for beginners and more *by C***T on May 3, 2026* If you need a book to explain botanical words in a concise, clear way, with simple illustrations, then this is the book for you.

It is very obviously a brand new book, with crisp pages and no damage. It arrived on time and is exactly as described. My botany professor recommended it as an aide for plant identification, and I can definitely see why. It is full of important plant vocabulary, with drawings to illustrate their meaning.
