dc.description.abstract | Malawi is a landlocked country situated in the eastern section of South Tropical Africa. This relatively small country has a rich mosaic of habitats owing to the varied topography, altitudinal ranges and rainfall found in different areas. Malawi harbours at least 21 different aloes, three of which are endemic to the country. Aloes in Malawi are severely threatened by habitat destruction and many species are in dire need of conservation. A key to the aloes of Malawi is provided, as well as a description, illustration, distribution map and information on habitat, flowering time, and conservation status for each of the species. | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | Malawi ist ein Land ohne Meereszugang im östlichen Teil des südlichen tropischen Afrikas. Das relativ kleine Land hat bedingt durch variable Topographie und Höhenlagen sowie unterschiedliche Regenmengen ein reiches Mosaik verschiedener Habitate. In Malawi sind mindestens 21 Aloe-Arten heimisch, von welchen drei für das Land endemisch sind. Die Aloe-Arten Malawis sind durch Habitatzerstörung stark gefährdet, und zahlreiche Arten bedürfen dringend Schutzmassnahmen. Es wird ein Schlüssel zu den malawischen Arten gegeben, sowie für jede Arte Beschreibung, Abbildung, Verbreitungskarte und Angaben zu Standort, Blütezeit, und Gefährdungsstatus. | en_US |
