>Hi folks,
>
>I have just posted substantial revisions and additions to my website. Many
>good photos of Saintpaulia species are now on the site. These have been
>reviewed by several experts, including Dr. Jeff Smith, and I believe that
>the species identifications are valid. This is more easily said than done,
>as the Saintpaulia group has a number of look-alike species. My thanks to
>Toshijiro Okuto, in particular, for a large number of fine photographs.
>
>These photos will be supplemented by others which are now being processed,
>or are expected soon. I hope the set provides useful reference
>information, as well as pure enjoyment.
>
>I have also posted a complete revision of the home page, which should
>result in significantly reduced loading times, and more convenient access
>to the site's internal links.
>
>In the near future there will be several other additions to the Website,
>including the following:
>- many more pictures of gesneriads, with special emphasis on Episcia and
>Sinningia
>- articles from Jeff Smith (on Saintpaulia species), Darrell Trout (on
>Alpine Gesneriads) and myself (microminiature sinningias)
>- text from CrossWords, the newsletter of the Gesneriad Hybridizers'
>Association
>
>Stay tuned!
>
>The site may be reached at http://www.pathcom.com/~rmyhr/ -- for the
>Saintpaulia species, navigate to the Genus Listings, and then to the
>Saintpaulia genus page.
