From Listserver@herbarium.ukm.my Tue Jul 28 15:07:47 1998 From: "ListServer"To: jrc@anbg.gov.au Subject: File - Welcome File Date: Tue, 28 Jul 1998 13:01:11 PDT Welcome To The Flora Malesiana Network Discussion Group This listserver's group was setup as a respond to numerous requests made by participants in the Fourth Flora Malesiana Symposium in Kuala Lumpur (20 to 24 July 1998). It was felt that members of this community need an efficient means to exchange ideas, plan future expedition and collecting trips and to report progress of their revisions. This hopefully will also enhance greatly communications between botanists in european herbaria and local institutions.
