Brian,
For the Zingiberaceae page at least I have IDs for everything but one or
two, but I assume you have some already ID'ed just not listed yet?? or
does a number mean you definitely need an ID? There are a few mixed
genera (ie alpinia in the hedychium folder, costus in the zingiber).
let me know if you need 'em. Cool site, congrats! If anyone is
interested I've just started a few new forums (non-aroid though)
including a couple ginger forums and hardy tropicals, zingiberales etc.
at http://www.gingerwoodnursery.com/forums/ just started, so no real
traffic yet.
