Dear fellow cycad enthusiasts,
I have uploaded two new educational resources to the Cycad Society website. The first is an "Expanded Glossary of Cycad Terms," which includes definitions of more than 1,200 cycad-related terms that might be encountered by scientists and collectors alike. There is also an "Illustrated Glossary of Cycad Terms" that goes along with the expanded glossary, which uses cycad-specific photos and drawings to illustrate more than 500 of these terms. You can access both from the following link:
http://www.cycad.org/publications/glossary.htm
The second new resource is an "Etymological Compendium of Cycad Names," which provides the etymology (= meaning) of every valid cycad name. This can be accessed here:
http://www.cycad.org/documents/etymological_compendium.pdf
Any comments, criticims, or suggestions are welcome.
Enjoy!
