Re: VMS -- Botanical (f07v) Pulmonaria



Hi everyone,

Here's a list of VMS botanicals' names as possible cribs: but I don't know whether words pre- or post-date the VMS - eg, Linnaeus would (almost certainly) be later, etc. Can anybody please help fill in some (of the many) gaps, or add further VMS-friendly synonyms/translations?

Thanks, .....Nick Pelling.....

PS: Lingua Franca translations gladly received too. :-)
