Abstract

Recently in the Botanical Memories of the university of the Bombay, No 2. the present author published a monograph on this interesting family covering the plants of the present Bombay state. But on account of the rather limited distribution of the monograph, there may be a number of botanists in Bombay who may not have access to the data there in given. Moreover, due also to the limited distribution of the same monograph some difficulty may arise in connection with Art 36 of the Intern Rules of Botan.Nomencl. especially about the new names proposed in the monograph. For these reason and to obviate future difficulties, I have been advised to publish in a short paper results of my work on the present family. The monograph bears the date 1951 on the cover; but in point of fact the monograph was published on April 1st 1952. In the present paper I shall deal with the genera or species where some change in the nomenclature or delimitation of the genus has taken place. At the same time these notes will serve as an appendix to the monograph, where data which have recently come to my knowledge will be embedded.
