Plants of extreme habitats in Antarctica

Smith, R.I.L.. 2000 Plants of extreme habitats in Antarctica. In: Schroeter, B.; Schlensog, M.; Green, T.G.A., (eds.) New aspects in cryptogamic research. Berlin, J. Cramer, 405-419. (Bibliotheca lichenologica, 75, 75).

Abstract
An account is given of phanerogams and cryptogams(bryophytes and lichens) growing in extreme habitats in Antarctica. These include high altitude and far southern sites, geothermal sites in volcanic areas, and deep water habitats, all of which confer considerable physiological stress on these organisms and represent the limits of non-microbial life in this biome and, to a large extent, on planet Earth.
