[Taxacom] RE: Asking for matherial of Balanophoraceae

[Jer-Ming Hu]

To Silvia,

Although this might not be very helpful, we do have several  
Balanophora species growing in Taiwan. One of the species, Balanophora  
laxiflora, is toward the end of its flowering time.

I am not familiar with weevils (I am a botanist), do you think we  
might have the taxon you are interested?

In any case, I am all ears to know about the story about  
Balanophoraceae-weevils. Is there any reference you can suggest?

Best,
Jer-Ming
