Dear friends

Following episodes have been scheduled for coming months. The coming three episodes will cover the Family Fabaceae. Looking at the huge size of this family in our country, it will be covered in three episodes:

November, 2011: Fabaceae-Faboidea (Papilionaceae)

December, 2011: Fabaceae-Caesalpinioideae (Caesalpiniaceae)

January, 2012: Fabaceae-Mimosoideae (Mimosaceae)

Members are requested to please keep their identified photographs ready for sharing in these episodes. They would also have chance to upload pending photographs for ID belonging to each episode. Let us participate in these with the same vigour as previous episodes.

Members may please volunteer to coordinate these or other episodes of their choice.

Dear Dr Gurcharan Ji,

I think Fabaceae also includes Subfamily Kramerioideae because it is
frequently treated with the Leguminosae, although the fruits do not
split open as do legumes, e.g.Cyometra cauliflora. What do you think?

Dear Pudji

Krameriaceae, I suppose remotely from Fabaceae under Rosids, not even under Fabids in APG Ssystem. I would be interesting to know in which system of classification Krameria is placed under Fabaceae (as Kramerioideae).
