THE GBE AN W A newsletter to promote communication among research scientists concerned with the systematics of the Leguminosae/ Fabaceae. Editor: Charles R. Gunn, Plant Taxonomy Laboratory, BARC-EAST, USDA, Beltsville, MD 20705 Associate Editor: James Lackey, Botany, NHB166, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560 7 " - • I 4c. A N°. 15 May 1982 ******************************************************************************** EDITORIAL The Plant Taxonomy Laboratory and the U.S. National Seed Herbarium are moving. Please use our new address for all Bean Bag correspondence: Lydia R. Poole, Building 265, BARC-EAST, Beltsville, MD 20705 USA. Notes about the Bean Bag: The Recent Literature column will only report papers of general taxonomic interest that have been published. Incomplete citations will not be published. A complete citation includes author(s), date, title, where published. Please use the style in this issue of the Bean Bag. Please print clearly. Several items from readers could not be read and thus could not be put in this issue. We appreciate the personal comments from our Readers. They are pleasant to come across during the rush of publishing. This issue of the Bean Bag was data banked in a PRIME computer and printed by a WANG word processer. The mailing labels also were issued in a similar manner. -2- ******************************************************************************** FLORA NE OTROP I CA-LEGUMI NOS AE Roger H. Polhill The time has come to draw together the scattered knowledge and vast research potential of the La t in-American legume flora into the more formalized format of FLORA NEOTROPICA. The publication of Flora Neotropica Monographs began in 1968 with the treatment of Swartzia by COWAN, but no further legume accounts have been submitted. The Organization for Flora Neotropica has appointed co-ordinators for each of the three subfamilies, and anyone interested in participating is encouraged to make contact with them: Caesalpinioideae : Kai Larsen, Botanical Institute, University of Aarhus, Nordlandsvej 68 DK-8240 Risskov, Denmark Mimosoideae: Enrique Forero, Institute de Ciencias Naturales Universidad National Bogota, Colombia Papilionoideae: Roger M. Polhill, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, Surrey, TW9 3AE England The co-ordinators will try to devise a balance, so that individual interests in single genera can be fostered, and so that collaborative work can be devised to write whole tribes with a proper consideration of generic structure and delimitation. Clearly both considerations are effectively met by the aefive participation of more people, and the Organization looks to readers of The Bean Bag for practical help and suggestions. The progress of individual projects will be noted in these pages from time to time, and the co-ordinators propose to establish a panel of advisers from among those workers most actively involved with neotropical legumes. ******************************************************************************* CYTOLOGICAL GAPS You are encouraged to help fill the cytological gaps in GOLDBLATT 8 s survey of legume genera.
