Sorry friends, I meant I have started using http://www.plantsoftheworldonline.org/, manitained by KEW and find it very useful.1,118,000 global plant names, 89,800 detailed descriptions, and 192,300 images. http://www.worldfloraonline.org/ seems to have more names. 1,324,109 names, 55,272 images, identification keys, 129,400 descriptions, 31,676 distributions and 1,153,608 references. It is I will check it for some days to find which is more robust and reliable.
