Gurcharan Singh, University of Delhi- Our new member Dear members, He was actively involved in taxonomic research between 1969 and 1985 having contributions on flora of Kashmir valley and Ladakh, including his book 'Forest Flora of Srinagar.... 'published in 1976. After migrating to Delhi and involved in active teaching he continued his taxonomic pursuits by being involved with technical editing of English translations of different Volumes of Flora of USSR, Flora of Siberia and Plants of Central Asia published by Amerind Publishers and subsequently Oxford & IBH. During last decade he has published book "Plant Systematics" international edition published by Science publishers, USA in 1999(enlarged international edition "Plant Systematics, an integrated approach" in 2004; Revised 2009 edition will be out within few weeks). For Indian Undergraduate and Postgraduate students there is Indian edition "Plant Systematics, Theory and Practice" published by Oxford & IBH Co., the two editions having come in 1999 and 2004. For last few months he is having a relook at the Flora of Delhi, and came to realise that perhaps a lot needs to be done. Within last few months he has already discovered many new records for the area including Mecardania procumbens, Evolvulus nummularius, Heliotropium crassifolium, Scoparia dulcis, Hydrocotyle triradiata, Soliva antherifolia, Euphorbia cyathophora etc. He has been using the expertise of members of TAXACOM, of which he was a member for last ten years or so, till he got introduced present group. I am sure his interactions will be very useful to 'Indiantreepix'. He has already started taking active interest. -- With regards, J.M.Garg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jmgarg1 'Creating awareness of Indian Flora & Fauna' Image Resource of thousands of my images of Birds, Butterflies, Flora etc. (arranged alphabetically & place-wise): http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:J.M.Garg For learning about Indian Flora, visit/ join Google e-group- Indiantreepix: http://groups.google.co.in/group/indiantreepix?hl=en --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "indiantreepix" group.
