This is a work in progress. Others are encouraged to rely on the literature cited, rather than on this document. However, if you want to cite this document, a preferred citation is provided below.

These pages are being supplied to the web as a source of information for those interested in this group of plants. Some of the names are invalid, I have not weeded out all the synonyms from the list.

This document is very large, and so has been split into parts. Select below to see any part of the list. Parts will appear on the list below as soon as they are formatted for the web. Genera are currently presented in (mostly) alphabetical order. If you don't find a genus you want, you may have to search for it for now - sorry. Eventually I'll put in a full generic index page. Currently, within each part is a generic index, for valid genera.

GENERA ARE LISTED (for the most part) IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER
