I happened to meet Dr. Hashendra S. Kathriarachchi and Dr. Rosabelle Samuel personally, two Sri Lankan ladies who had worked intensely on this group at University of Vienna with Dr. Steussy. They explained it rightly why they have madehave put efforts to establish this new family Phyllanthaceae, though many of other counterparts dont agree with this..... I do agree with Phyllanthaceae!!!
