Re: [Aroid-l] CATE Philodendrons

From: Simon Mayo <S.Mayo at kew.org> on 2009.09.01 at 10:22:53 Dear Leland,   Many Brazilian species are already covered with "placeholder" descriptions but we expect these to be replaced before too long by colleagues in Brazil once the editing facilities have improved. The medium term plan for CATE is that taxonomists will add new material for taxa on which they have good information, but for this to be workable, we need a fully tested editing facility in the CATE software and we are still working on this.    All the best Simon   From: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of brian lee Sent: Sunday, August 30, 2009 12:12 AM To: Discussion of aroids Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] The Genera of Araceae Dear Anna, Aloha. Exactly why does Cate-Araceae not post information on Brazilian endemic Philodendron? They have the most interesting species and diversity...and are so poorly known.

This is now somewhat out of date. I don't believe there are immediate plans for a new edition. Most of the text from the book, with updates made for the the changes that have occurred are available at www.cate-araceae.org. This is a work in progress, with additions still being made.
