A few of us were thinking about gathering on a regular (weekly?) basis to discuss angiosperm evolution. Currently, potential discussion group members include Ya Yang, Stephen Smith, Rob Massati, and myself.
Proposed readings have included Stebbins "Flowering Plants" and a newly published book on the angiosperm fossil record by Friis, Crane, and Pedersen entitled "Early flowers and angiosperm evolution".
If this sounds interesting to anyone else, please send me an email and I will include you in future planning emails.
