The computer program was developed by Mr Yonathan Aklilu and later on maintained by Mr. Sisay Mersha, who has also developed this website version. Data entry was coordinated by Mr Biruk Sileshi. We are most grateful to Prof Ben-Erik van Wyk of Johannesburg University, South Africa, who allowed us to include photographs of many plants from his books cited in the database.
