The flowering plants of the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan Vol. 1 Cycadaceae to Tiliaceae.
Frederick William Andrews
PREFACE
THE first descriptive flora of the plants of the Sudan founded on a catalogue of Sudan plants compiled by A. F. Broun was written by Broun and Massey and publishedin 19291
.
This excellent little book served a very useful purpose in making available short descriptions of the then known plants of the Sudan. By 1940, however, the need was felt for an enlarged flora containing the many additions discovered since 1929. The then Director of Agriculture, Dr. J. D. Tothill, C.M.G., therefore set up a committee, consisting of Dr. John Smith (then Chief Conservator of Forests, now Director of Agriculture) as chairman, Mrs. B. H. Tothill and Dr. F. W. Andrews, to consider the preparation and publication of a new and enlargedflora.Dr.Andrews was entrusted with the task of writing the flora. In compiling this flora much use has been made of the work of various observers who have collected in the Sudan since 1929.
Among these may be mentioned the late Dr. J. G. Myers, who made a pioneer survey of the flora of Equatoria Province; Major J. W. G. Wyld, D.S.O., O.B.E., M.C., who collected extensively in the Zande district of Equatoria; Major G. Aylmer, who concentrated on the trees and shrubs of the Sudan; Mr. B. Kennedy-Cooke, who compiled an excellent detailed list of the trees and shrubs of Kassala Province; Mr. Lewis Turner, Conservator of Forests, who added considerably to our knowledge of the forests of Equatoria; Mr. A. S. Thomas of Uganda, who collected plants on the Imatong Mountains; and many others of the Veterinary, Medical, Political, Agricultural and Forest services of this country who by their work have added to the botanical knowledge of the Sudan.To all these our thanks are due.
