Thanks, Giby ji. We have already listed a lot of species. More can be added by members concerned. Or can be sent in any format to me and I will include them in the genus and family page. Already D S Rawat ji has added a lot of species on many genera pages. I feel anybody can start the work on any genus/ family and pass it on to us, in the way he likes (any standard format which is decided), so that this is incorporated in efloraofindia site.
