Re: Key to Plant Picture References (A,An,B1,B2,D, ...)



The letter codes associated with the plant names found in the Krib (i.e. A,
An, B1, B2, D, G, Jc, Jm, M, R, S1, S2, V, W, Y) refer to reference books
which illustrate the particular plant.

These basically represent the most recent English language aquarium plant
publications. 

Here is the key to the books (as found in the Krib, under "Reference books"):
