About this book

Language: French

For more than 25 years, the Flora Helvetica has been the standard flora for the botany of Switzerland. Scientifically sound and adapted to the APG standard, the flora also meets the needs of amateur botanists.

Virtually all flowering plants and ferns growing wild in Switzerland are represented by one or two excellent colour photos – each species individually – and are described by a precise text. The species description contains the scientific, German, French, Italian and Rhaetian names, the most important characteristics, the ecological importance, the frequency and occurrence in Switzerland, as well as further information such as IUCN Red List status, toxicity, pharmaceutical application, legal protection, etc.

The 6th French edition has been completely revised again. A total of 58 neophytes are newly included with images, and a further 32 taxa have been recorded for the first time as annotations without images.

Summary in French:
Depuis plus de 25 ans, la Flora Helvetica est l'ouvrage de référence sur la botanique en Suisse. Bien qu'étant construit de manière scientifique et conforme à la norme APG, l'oeuvre répond également aux exigences des amateurs de plantes moins expérimentés.

La quasi-totalité des plantes sauvages de Suisse, plantes à fleurs et fougères, sont recensées dans l’ouvrage. Chaque espèce est représentée par une ou deux photographies en couleur d’excellente qualité et accompagnée d’un texte descriptif détaillé. La description de l'espèce comprend la nomenclature scientifique, allemande, française, italienne et romanche, les principales caractéristiques, les exigences écologiques, la fréquence et la répartition en Suisse, ainsi que d'autres informations telles que le degré de menace, la toxicité, l'utilisation pharmaceutique et la protection légale.

La 6e édition a été de nouveau entièrement remaniée et prend en compte environ 60 néophytes supplémentaires.
