Common wayside plants of Jambi Province (Sumatra, Indonesia)

Abstract

In context of the vegetation surveys carried out by EFForTS subproject B06, we documented common vascular plant species inside and near the core plots in Jambi Province (Fig. 1, for details see Rembold et al. 2017). The core plots cover four land‐use systems: lowland rainforest, jungle rubber agroforest, rubber plantations, and oil palm plantations. With this booklet, we would like to share photographs of selected common or conspicuous species and their identifications as they might be useful for others. The color guide is divided into pteridophytes (lycophytes and ferns) and angiosperms and arranged alphabetically by families. The current version includes 94 plant species from 44 families and provides information about which species are native or alien to Indonesia. For more plant pictures, see the EFForTS Sumatra plant database that is currently under development (http://134.76.19.22/sumatra/home). Please be aware that species and family names are subject to changes due to identification updates or changes in plant taxonomy.
