Yes very true
But what I have also learnt from the beginning, if you working on plants of
a particular area, try to locate locate a local, make
preliminary identification using its keys and text, then locate a more
comprehensive recent flora (say Flora of India) to confirm or clear doubts,
compare also with comprehensive Floras of adjoining regions (say eFlora of
Pakistan eFlora of China).
About which database to follow, I am not very sure, because most of
the time major databases have different taxonomic and nomenclatural
treatment. We have to decide on one and follow it consistently.
