Dear all, I have just posted an updated page on Cymbopogon < http://www.plantnames.unimelb.edu.au/Sorting/Cymbopogon.html >, including your inputs and hopefully meeting the challenges of Pankaj ji. Feel free to peruse and copy if you need to (as long as it is cited and dated). However many Indian names still need to be worked out before this can be entered into the efloraofindia database. Cheers Michel
