Flora of Panamea is a compilation of the indigenous and naturalized vascular plants of the Republic of Panama, following generally the system of Engler and Prantl. The treatments of the various families follow consecutively as nearly as is practicable and are of a critical nature, including synonymy, descriptions, and citation of representative Panamanian exsiccatae for each species. The compilers of the Flora have been aided in their work very materially by the extensive contributions of American and European specialists of wide repute in the case of numerous critical families. As is customary, such contributions are credited directly to the authors concerned.Flora of Panama will appear in the ANNALS OF THE MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN as contributions accumulate. Since the completed work will be extensive, it will consist of a number of parts designated numerically, each with separate pagination and pertinent illustrations. The first portion of the work to be published will begin the taxonomic treatment of the Gymnospermae and Monocotyledoneae, and will be designated as Part II. General discussions of historical, geographical, physiographic and floristic relations, to be published later, will constitute Part I. Full indices, together with addendae and corrigendae, will occupy the final part.The unusual nature of Flora Qf Panama will necessitate a change in the policy of the Missouri Botanical Garden regarding reprints, which will not be generally distributed except to collaborators.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
