number of plant species?

[David G. Bauman]

I've been asked what is the current estimate of the number of plant
species.  I'm sure the figures I have (from school and/or texts) are
long outdated and its time to update them.

Please answer directly to me at:   dbauman at mail.indyzoo.com
rather than clutter TAXACOM.  Thanks.

David
