Thank you friends... I am preparing a shopping list for Delhi and hope to try and track these valuable additions to my library.. if I can, but it is heartening to know that there are books available for help... perhaps things are not as bleak as they seemed about lack of Indian data... though I am sure the work being put in by 'flowers of India' and 'Indiantreepix' will help a lot on open sources of knowledge on the Indian front. sincere regards Alok
