Happy #TaxonomistAppreciationDay!
We appreciate the more than 700 taxonomists from 69 countries around the world who support our 68 Taxonomic Expert Groups, or TENs.
World Flora Online held its 26th Council meeting last month, attended by 42 people (in person and virtually) representing 15 countries and 22 Consortium Members. Thank you to Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh for hosting!
Stay tuned to our social pages for more updates soon.
Know someone who is an expert on roses, cherries, strawberries, and the other members of the Rosaceae family? We would love to hear from them! Reach out to taxwg@worldfloraonline.org and visit worldfloraonline.org to see our full TENs Wish List.
Instead of a bouquet of roses, this Valentine's Day we're hoping we get rose experts to help us form a Rosaceae Taxonomic Expert Network, or TEN. 🌹
