The
Vahinala
Project aims to bring together information on all native
and naturalized vascular plant species in Madagascar, evaluating the
available taxonomic literature and specimen base for each taxon. The
project will result in The Catalogue of Vascular Plants of
Madagascar, comprising an online database, and eventually a printed
version. The Missouri Botanical Garden leads the project in
collaboration with numerous institutional and individual partners. We
anticipate completing the synonymized list of accepted species by
mid-2008 and to have evaluated all genera and compiled distributional,
ecological, and conservation status information for all accepted
species by the end of 2010. The data available now represent the subset
thus far completed (milestones).

Use the pale
green navigation bar that appears on the left of most screens in
the Catalogue to browse or search the currently available data.
Searches may be made using a % as a wildcard symbol. The
Complex Search
link on the navigation bar enables the generation of species lists
based on a search for multiple search criteria, for example, all of the
endemic tree species classed as endangered or critically endangered
that occur in a particular protected area. Complex Search allows a
Keyword Search
on taxon name, thus a generated list may be restricted to a certain
family or genus by specifying this name in the Keyword search box.
