A place to store information related to tropical plant taxonomy
The diversity of tropical systems is a double-edged sword. Biologically-diverse tropical ecosystems are both scientifically interesting and difficult to study due to high levels of diversity. Luckily, there have been innumerable taxonomists willing to dedicate themselves to the systematic study of tropical plants. Here we celebrate their work and the plants they have studied. ♠
