Has there been any proposal to conserve Luehea speciosa Willd.?


Haven't heard of one..., and there's nothing on the web. All I found
was:

http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/research/...jan04lit.shtml


That was my source. (I'd been provided with some digital photos of
Luehea grandiflora, for my website, and I was digging around the web to
educate myself about the genus, and to confirm the identification - the
plant photographed was growing in a Brasilian park with the label Luehea
divaricata - Martius Fl. Bras. has grandiflora sunk in speciosa.)

It seemed a sensible name for conservation.
