Garg Ji We have been following The Plant List 2013 in eFI and accordingly recognize families as per APG-III (adopted in TPL2013). Today, while trying to see how many families we have in eFI, I found few families/ genera in the places which are not according to TPL2013. These are given below with their position as per TPL2013: 1. Chenopodiaceae is not recognized as a distinct family; therefore, its genera (Arthrocnemum <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/c/chenopodiaceae/arthrocnemum> Salsola <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/c/chenopodiaceae/salsola> Suaeda <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/c/chenopodiaceae/suaeda>) need to be shifted in Amaranthaceae. 2. Cochlospermaceae is not recognized as a distinct family; therefore, genus Cochlospermum with all its species (Cochlospermum religiosum ? <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/cl/cochlospermaceae/cochlospermum/cochlospermum-religiosum-1> Cochlospermum religiosum <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/cl/cochlospermaceae/cochlospermum/cochlospermum-religiosum> Cochlospermum species <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/cl/cochlospermaceae/cochlospermum/cochlospermum-species> Cochlospermum vitifolium <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/cl/cochlospermaceae/cochlospermum/cochlospermum-vitifolium> ) need to be shifted to Bixaceae. 3. Dipsacaceae is not recognized as a distinct family; therefore, the genus Dipsacus <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/d/dipsacaceae/dipsacus> need to be shifted to Caprifoliaceae. 4. Limnocharitaceae is not recognized as distinct family; therefore, genus Limnocharis <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/l/limnocharitaceae/limnocharis-flava> need to be shifted to Alismataceae. 5. Morinaceae is not recognized as a distinct family; therefore, genus Morina <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/m/morinaceae/morina> need to be shifted to Caprifoliaceae. 6. Stackhousiaceae is not recognized as a distinct family; therefore, genus Stackhousia <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/s/stackhousiaceae/stackhousia> need to be shifted to Celastraceae. 7. Valerianaceae is not recognized as a distinct family; therefore, genus Valeriana <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/v/valerianaceae/valeriana> need to be shifted to Caprifoliaceae. 8. Eutrema <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/b/eutrema> need to be shifted to Brassicaceae. These changes (except Eutrema) are essential only when we follow TPL2013. One more suggestion: Can we list all Angiosperm (Flowering plants) families on a single page in A-Z sequence to reach to families in single click rather than clicking few times? It will be easier to reach to any family. Both systems can be kept here. The entire list (copied from eFI) with links is a small word document of 17.6 KB. I am attaching it here. If you feel it appropriate this mail of mine may be posted to efibest for the opinion of others. Regards. DSRawat Pantnagar Dr D.S.Rawat Department of Biological Sciences, G.B.
