Hi Dr. Gurumurthi, A thought occured to me after reading your mail again. We are not talking here about my great grandfather Dr.S.G.Dalgado [who worked towards bridging the Portuguese and Konkani languages], but his brother my great grand-uncle Dr.D.G.Dalgado, the civil surgeon and [for me at least] the recently discovered botanist. With regards, Neil Soares.

The book is available at these 2 sites : http://www.infibeam.com/Books/flora-de-goa-e-savantvadi-catalogo-methodico-das-daniel-gelanio-dalgado/9781246606003.html http://www.alibris.com/Flora-de-Goa-E-Savantvadi-Catalogo-Methodico-Das-Plantas-Medicinaes-Alimentares-E-Industriaes-Daniel-Gelanio-Dalgado/book/19276536?matches=4&cm_sp=works*listing*title# Have ordered it online, but unfortunately it is in Portuguese. Dr. Almeida had informed me that an English transalation of the book is available on the net. Will try and find it. With regards, Neil Soares. ________________________________ From: Gurumurthi <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: radha veach <[email protected]>; Dinesh Valke <[email protected]>; Neil Soares <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, August 29, 2013 7:02 PM Subject: Re: [efloraofindia:163489] Heracleum for id Heracleum dalgadianum S.M.Almeida, by classification must be "grayish- hirsute/hirtellus....atleast on the lower surface of leaves" (Almeida, Fl. of MH. vol.4: 354). But the one posted by Radha seems to be totally glabrous.It can be either Heracleum grande or Heracleum aquilegifolium. Based on the leaves, I stick to H.grande (Dalzell & A. Gibson) Mukhop. Meanwhile, Dr. Neil, One must be thankful to your Great Grand father, Dr. S. R. Dalgado, who notably worked for bridging Portugese and Konkani languages. I never knew he wrote on floristic aspect too ! I would love to read his observations, please try to procure a copy and share. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "efloraofindia" group.
