Motivation[edit]

Reputable database, covering the South Australian flora, both native and exotic, giving taxonomy, descriptions, habitat and distributions. If a genus, it gives a key to the immediate subtaxa found in South Australia. This also finds families (as shown above), but these are rather less helpful and should preferably be excluded from any mix'n'match upload to wikidata.
