This section has been implemented to give everyone the possibility to keep track of all the updates on this website.

Since last time we added, changed or updated the following pages ( = latest additions):

- Modifications and additions to the data base are newly coded so that they appear in the list of plants. Now everybody can easily see the additions of the last time without having to read through the news.

- In January 2013 we had to move to another web hosting company as our old hoster, IXWebhosting, couldn't meet our requirements.

Changes of website and data base:
- Search functions are hacker-proof and activated again
- New function "Display grouping of a genus according to subgenus and section"
- New first descriptions and pictures added

Please be aware that this is a huge task and that many pictures of first descriptions are missing simply because we don't have the necessary equipment or because we don't have all the original first descriptions on paper. It will be a second step to add all the missing data and pictures.



Since 2008 we are members of the botanical investigation group of the Mexican National University UNAM (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Instituto de Biología). This has made especially our work in the field and also on the data base a lot easier!
