Please do let us know, since many of us do have a problem with taxonomy and field id of trees that is so essential to our work. Thanks. Sunita June 8: In a first of its kind initiative, researchers at the French institute of Pondicherry (IFP) and CIRAD, France, have developed an open source software application for identification of tree species in the two major biodiversity hotspots in the world. Now, at the click of a mouse, taxonomists, specialists and non-specialists can identify tree species in the rain forests of the Western Ghats and the Annamite rain forests of Laos, near Vietnam. The project, biodiversity informatics and cooperation in taxonomy for interactive shared knowledge base (BIOTIK), is funded by the European Union. The software was developed by Dr Pierre Grard of CIRAD while a team of researchers led by Dr B.R. Ramesh developed the database on the tree species. Speaking to Deccan Chronicle, Dr Ramesh, director of research, IFP, said, “The Western Ghats, comprising 1,600 km of tropical rain forests in the states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Goa, Maharashtra and Gujarat, are under threat from various factors including construction of dams and depletion of forest resources.” “The main objective of creating this database is to facilitate the conservation of endemic species of trees in the Western Ghats and address the needs of stakeholders who are involved in maintaining and preserving these diverse rain forests,” Mr Ramesh said. “The software is available online at www.ifpindia.org/biotik and www.biotik.org.,” he added. -- Make the world eco-friendly through MSN Green Drag n’ drophttp://green.in.msn.com/ __._,_.___ Reply to sender pra_1...@hotmail.com?subject=western+ghats+trees | Reply to group kvenvironm...@yahoogroups.com?subject=western+ghats+trees | Reply via web posthttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/KVEnvironment/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJxNnU3cjQ5BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzM0NjU2NDgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA1MDY0MTc3BG1zZ0lkAzEzMDI3BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA3JwbHkEc3RpbWUDMTI3NjA4NDk2Mg--?act=replymessageNum=13027| Start a New Topichttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/KVEnvironment/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJldmszcTNuBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzM0NjU2NDgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA1MDY0MTc3BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA250cGMEc3RpbWUDMTI3NjA4NDk2Mg-- Messages in this topichttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/KVEnvironment/message/13027;_ylc=X3oDMTM2NHNkZm04BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzM0NjU2NDgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA1MDY0MTc3BG1zZ0lkAzEzMDI3BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA3Z0cGMEc3RpbWUDMTI3NjA4NDk2MgR0cGNJZAMxMzAyNw--( 1) Recent Activity: Visit Your Grouphttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/KVEnvironment;_ylc=X3oDMTJlM2xlZjkyBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzM0NjU2NDgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA1MDY0MTc3BHNlYwN2dGwEc2xrA3ZnaHAEc3RpbWUDMTI3NjA4NDk2MQ-- MARKETPLACE Stay on top of your group activity without leaving the page you're on - Get the Yahoo!

Some information that could be relevant to identify this plant and also to contextualise it ecosystem wise-wasteland, roadside-that is degraded habitats. Also last year inadequate rain and extensive, regular grazing by livestock, therefore the plants that dominated the landscape were eaten up. The area was nearly bereft of any green cover! This year monsoon has just begun and it has been good in the area, and the area has not seen livestock grazing. The old dominant species have just begun to make a comeback.

Re: [efloraofindia:43948] Star White wildflower
Thanks for your response. The key difference between the star white flower and Shankhapushpi is the size of the flower with the unidied flower being small-only in few mms size, and that the unidied flower's inflorescence is raceme-as seen in the picture. I hope that this observation/clarification of mine could be addressed Thanks Janaki Turaga On Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 10:34 AM, Gurcharan Singh singh...@gmail.comwrote: Looks like Convolvulus prostratus (syn: C. pluricaulis). -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.

There were not that many of these plants around. It was rare. I am seeing this plant for the first time in 2 years in this area. Would appreciate if someone could id this plant and give any more information about this plant. I think this is could be a Glory. Some information that could be relevant to identify this plant and also to contextualise it ecosystem wise-wasteland, roadside-that is degraded habitats. Also last year inadequate rain and extensive, regular grazing by livestock, therefore the plants that dominated the landscape were eaten up. The area was nearly bereft of any green cover! This year monsoon has just begun and it has been good in the area, and the area has not seen livestock grazing. The old dominant species have just begun to make a comeback. This plant was seen only in 2 places. Apologies for the large file of the plant. Thanks Janaki Turaga
