Dear members, Dr. Sabu is one of the top taxonomists of India & an expert on Zingiberaceae, Musaceae, Marantaceae etc. He is the Professor, Taxonomy and Floristics Division, Department of Botany, Calicut University, Kerala. He was also the Secretary of Indian Association for Angiosperm Taxonomy, established in 1990, which also brings out Rheedea (of which he is the Executive editor), which publishes peer reviewed original research and review articles in angiosperm taxonomy. Despite being very busy, he has taken care of identifications single handedly in these families. I will say he seems to be a very humble person who wants to see that Indian Taxonomy stays on top & he will leave no stone un-turned in this matter. My salute to him for his untiring work. We will remain indebted to him for his great contributions in building up of efloraofindia. -- With regards, J.M.Garg
