    \n

    I have updated eFI (efloraofindia) page on<\/span> Salacia<\/em><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

    Attempts have been made to incorporate most of the species available in India & nearby areas with details & keys directly or through links as far as possible. It\u2019s quite possible that there may be some discrepancy in the accepted names & synonyms taken from other databases\/ books.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Species discussed so far in efloraofindia are given at the bottom of the page in the form of links against Subpages. On clicking them one can see all the details.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Any comments are welcome<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
