more available by Botany students
and fans. This leads to an easier and faster identification.

- "Flodhis" is not a complete
flora, as it only includes the most common taxa:
approximately 39% of the species, 65% of the genera and 83% of the
known families
in the region.
- To identify correctly a plant you need to
consult the botanic literature.
- Origin:
- Born in 1997 as a teaching innovation
project
at the University of Seville (Spain).
- Since then, new versions have been
published,
expanding the content and including new photographs provided by the project partners.
