Index of Genera Discussed

Angiosperms

Conifers

Cycads

 

This list indicates the Families and their constituent genera which have been assessed and completed to date and the information is recorded here – this is a work which is continually being revised and updated as the notes in the files on additional Families are put in order and assessed.

 

The information is published here when all the available information on a Family has been aggregated – there is therefore a huge amount in the pipeline and if information on a particular genus is sought – an enquiry could well produce a positive response if the material has already been accumulated and is accessible and available! Some of the Families are virtually complete and hopefully will be added soon. An e-mail to penpolhc@hotmail.com will elicit a response.

 

The list indicates the name of the Family in which the genus currently resides (depending on one’s view of the taxonomy!) and thus where the information is recorded.
