Flora of Mozambique ^{*Site now continuously updated}

Welcome to the September 2011 update of the Flora of Mozambique website!

This update introduces a major change to the way the site works. Mark has written new software which enables the three main authors to add information directly to the site online.

We expect this will have 3 hugely beneficial effects:

• The site will be continuously updated. Up to now updates have taken place at approximately 2 monthly intervals.
• There will be much faster addition of content. Previously, only Mark was able to add content and this resulted in a very large backlog of material.
• The new content will be highlighted so that the site will be worth visiting on a regular basis.
