The Malpighiales Scratchpad is administrated by Sue Zmarzty, Gill Challen and Andrew Budden, staff members at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, UK. Current development of the site depends almost entirely on Andrew's enthusiasm and voluntary contribution, both of which are hugely appreciated.
The Scratchpad would not be possible without the kind help of many other people:
The site was built and populated by Emma McLarnon (BSc Biology, Leeds University, 2008 – 2012; work placement at Kew 2010 - 2011). We'd like to thank Emma for her conscientious and invaluable work, much in her own time, and for her enduring enthusiasm throughout the project.
For help with the development of the site, we'd also like to thank the Scratchpad team (http://scratchpads.eu/about) and our colleagues at Kew, especially Odile Weber and Anna Haigh.
We're very grateful to the following for contribution of images:
