      Efloraofindia (eFI in short) website helps in documenting flora of India that is being discussed on ‘efloraofindia’ e-group along with supplementing the working of the group. A species database (Alphabetically family wise- Seed plants etc.) has been created here family wise & then followed genus wise. Intent of this database is compilation of all the posts on ‘efloraofindia’ e- group so that it’s useful to all concerned as all the data about a particular species will be available under a single head & easily searchable. It has the largest database on net on Indian Flora with details of seed plants, ferns, fungi & others of more than 12,000 species (and with more than 3,00,000 pictures at efloraofindia e-group links). We have started inserting these images for direct display at species’ pages. Already more than 2,50,000 unique images have been inserted. We have simultaneously started displaying these at genera & family pages with comparative images of various species for easy identification.
