Tell me what you think about the spelling of some of the sub tribes. The
list is taken from Dressler's view of taxonomy. I looked up some members of
Maxilariinae. (double i) then I loked up those same plants in Hawkes 1965
encyclopedia, he spells it Maxilarinae (single i) so I'm confused, but I
figure something happened at some time between 1965 and when Dressler wrote
his book (1990s??) to change the spelling. These taxonomists are going to be
the death of me. I suppose I shouldn't be so rigid in my thinking...

I probably shouldn't have even pointed it out! LOL!! Now I've got you
confused too!

Thanks I found that and it is what I wanted. I can search it, sort of,
by doing a find in page!
