"Contact-Poisonous Plants of the World" - читать интересную книгу автора (Rohde M)

Geographical Distribution

For travellers, the danger of contact-poisonous plants depends on the region visited. The more harmful allergizing Toxicodendron species are native to North America, while the powerful mechanically-chemically active Dendrocnide species are mostly found in Australia. These are regions with highly efficient prevention and information distribution. However, it is the tropics where the most powerful contact-poisonous plants occur in great variety.

Plants which are not native to a region but have been introduced are marked with an asterisk(*).
