In this guide to Nordic orchids, all approximately 80 occurring species, subspecies and varieties are described.
The main part of the book consists of presentations of these orchids. An introductory section describes the book's genesis, structure and a little general information about orchids, terminology and photography. The book is richly illustrated with photographs, distribution maps, etc. There are also determination keys for all taxa here. The book is written by Sven Birkedal from Åhus and is the Nature Center's fourth in the series about plants and animals in Sweden. In the past, field guides to lichens, mosses and butterflies have been published. The book also contains English translations of all texts.
