Bud arrangement, twig anatomy, leaf morphology, and growth form provide reliable diagnostic features that remain visible for much of the year. Understanding how these traits vary among angiosperms allows for systematic identification across seasons and habitats.

This guide focuses on observable traits  for field identification. Each species is introduced by its common and Latin name, and its...
