Title from cover.
"This publication only deals with epiphytic (tree dwelling) plants that provide homes for ants. The description "ant-plants" is certainly very popular for this plant grouping; the description of "ant-house plants" is a less used one but is far more accurate. Many ant-plants from across the world have very close relationships with ants that do not involve supplying them with readymade homes, as do all the plants featured in this publication." -- preface, cover verso.
