[Taxacom] (paleo)tropical plant systematics short courses?

[Andrea Weeks]

HI there,

Can anyone recommend a tropical plant systematics short course (2-8  
wks) that is located in the paleotropics, preferably Africa?  A  
graduate student in my department has an expressed an interest in  
taking one in 2010, and I'd like to be able to help him find one.  I  
am unaware of any database or compendium of such courses.

Many thanks,

Andrea Weeks
