Adelaide: State Herbarium of South Australia, (2023. second edition), Octavo, paperback, limp plastic, colour photographs.

This revised comprehensive field guide draws together the knowledge of the more common plants within the outback region of South Australia (the area north of a line from the Murray River to Morgan, across to Pt Augusta and westwards to the W.A. border). It has been designed with all interest groups in mind by using non-technical terms. The guide is supplemented with a description of landforms and habitats, a glossary and comprehensive index.

356 of the most common outback plants are described and illustrated (incl. 24 introduced weeds). 212 of these plants are featured with full page descriptions. Distribution maps are provided. All species are arranged by their life form (trees, shrubs, forbs, grasses, climbers, etc.) for easier identification.

The second edition has been completely reformatted and newly type-set, all plants names have been updated and 10 more species were added to the book. Binding is section-sown and the book has a vinyl outer cover for protection against the environment.
