Something that would give me a common name if I knew the latin name would be very useful for certain translation assignments that I have to do. I don't need descriptions or any of the stuff that can be found in field guides, just a little handbook of latin names/english (?) names. Thanks. -Ann annmh@blake.acs.washington.edu
