Would like to inform the group that the latest search on Kew plant list will
show an absence of family Bombacaceae. We have been putting Red silk cotton
tree as Bombax Ceiba L. in family Bombacaceae. It is now as per Kew in the
new family of  Malvaceae !  The genus  Bombax is now placed in Malvaceae and
so is the genus Ceiba !

regards,
Rashida.
