[edit] Romnalda
Hi Plantnerd,
you asked for comments on Romnalda. One thing which is customary is to add a taxobox, which I have now added. A second thing is to have some pix. Imho photos should not just be an illustrtation to dress up an artcile, but depict identifiable characteristics of a species. Are you able to make any photos?
One thing I was wondering is: you wrote that The genus Rhomnalda differs from Lomandra in growing exclusively in rainforests and having sparsely branched inflorescences with no spines. Is there more ecological information available? For example, which bees / butterflies fly on this genera? Are there any larva of butterflies specializing in this genus? Are they part of any known plant communions?
Hm, on second thoughts, I am not so sure about the taxobox I added to this article, as Brya removed it from the family Lomandraceae. Do you know if APG II eliminated this family, or if there are any new publications that support this as a separate family?
