Re: [Aroid-l] Duckweeds and Other Aquatic Aroids

From: Walter Turner <wvturner at gmail.com> on 2009.01.23 at 21:05:29 Marek, Steve, etc.: I actually put "duckweed wiki" into Google and was automatically linked to the Wikipedia article I cited with the wrong spelling. And I did have to re-spell what I wrote there because I thought the wiki article would at least have the right spelling in the title! I knew it looked funny. Steve, I do know how wiki works, but I have to admit that I too often accept what it says. It is one of those primrose paths, or whatever. I take it from what Marek wrote that wiki is at least right, that lemna are under aroids. That the plants with the gigantic inflorescences and the smallest flowering plants are grouped together?

The article seems to have been written by someone knowledgeable, perhaps writing under the name Zeamays (I don't have enough experience with Wikipedia to be sure). Is that a member of our group?
