NYIKA–VWAZA BIBLIOGRAPHY. WEB VERSION – 7 Feb 2012

The bibliography ha= s been compiled by our trustee Jonathan Timberlake. Jonathan works in the Herbarium at the Royal Botan= ic Gardens Kew, London, where he edits Flora Zambesiaca, the regional flora for south-central Africa (including Malawi), and acts as= the main focal point at Kew for that region. He also led Kew's recent Mozambique–Malawi montane biodiversity pr= oject, in which the Mulanje Mountain Conservation Trus= t was one of the main partners, and is involved in assisting conservation initiat= ives in the region, particularly in Mozambique, Zambia and Malawi. <= /o:p>

Inevitably, a bibliography is always incomplete as new works are constantly being written, and especially so when the subjects are of wide-ranging scientific and popu= lar interest, as are the Nyika and Vwaza parks. If you have any bibliographic material that may be relevant please contact Jonathan directly at j.timberlake@btinternet.com . We are enormo= usly grateful to Jonathan for the painstaking work that he has done on this document.
