PLEASE NOTE.

We print all articles in their entirety with ALL PHOTOS,
which are an essential part of Bayer's writings, not only for his species
concept, but also because they constitute a photographic herbarium of
habitat plants essential
for all scientists and hobbyists seriously interested in the subject.

Alsterworthia International is happy to share information for the common
good, which is why our policy is to promote and facilitate the publication
of information without favour or gain. Therefore, copyright for that which
Alsterworthia International publishes is NOT reserved to Alsterworthia
International. It is the property of the author. Bayer gladly allows other
publishers to make use of his articles in whole or in part.
Acknowledgements would of course be appreciated.
