The text provides details of when and where the taxa were named, etymology of the scientific names used, descriptions, distributions, habitats and notes for the 1,698 taxa of Australian native orchids, more than twice the number covered in the original edition of the book in 1988 and 394 more species than detailed in the second edition published in 2006. Of these, about 1,459 taxa are terrestrials, 239 epiphytes or lithophytes and six or seven exotic taxa have become naturalised.
