. Species & genera pages of Araliaceae are now with images : 1 post by 1 author.
Species & genera pages of Araliaceae in efloraofindia are now with images.
It involved inserting images on around 30 species pages (say around 100 images) & 10 genera pages. It also involved correctly identifying some of the threads, putting them at their proper place, proper formatting of the species pages etc.
I request our members to pl. take up one family each & try to make efloraofindia more constructive. We will be rendering what ever assistance is required by the members, in this matter.
