Dear Tamil speakers,
Here are some transcripted names that must be correct for they come from a Tamil speaking botanist. We have communication problems because he is using a font I cannot display. In time we'll be able to cross ref. our names. In the meantime let's try to transcribe the following. Please point out anything that does not look correct. I have many other names but I do not wish to muddy the water at this stage.
