Thanks Pankaj ji for the useful article

We realise it or not, efloraofindia group is already implementing a large portion of recovery plan. Perhaps no electronic group or institution would have so many parataxonomists who are collecting useful information through their lens and enriching our database for taxonomists to critically analyse. With the substitution of type photographs and protologue which Pankaj ji and Rashida ji attach frequently, we may soon achieve much more than the paper is suggesting.

At this pace and with more professionals joining in the Taxonomy, especially the Indian taxonomy has a great future.

I will humbly request not to use "reply all" in this thread as it will
go to people's personal mail outside the group. It was my mistake that
I should have BCC to people. Please accept my apologies.
Have a good day...
I am off to Mussorie for field trip..........
