Wild Orchids of Málaga is an English guide to the wild orchids of the province of Málaga – which are often of great beauty and prolific but are increasingly threatened. Based on some 30 years of study, the first pages consist of an account of the province with motorised transport in mind – hence details of roads leading to the orchid-rich sites, many of which are by the roadside. It then includes information on orchid flower structure and on flowering times of each species. There then follow simple accounts and photographs of the entire plant, the flower head, and the individual flower of each species.

All 28 species of Scotland's wild orchids are described in detail and illustrated with colour photographs. Up-to-date distribution maps and a comprehensive field key supplemented with line drawings should prove useful to professional botanists and amateur naturalists alike. In the chapters on biology, habitats and conservation, the authors have combined their several areas of botanical expertise to present a complete picture of this group of plants. Specially commissioned pictures were taken over three orchid seasons and there is a chapter on the photographic techniques used to capture the fragile beauty of these orchids in their sometimes remote and often threatened habitats.
