INDEX: PLANT FAMILY
Here’s a list-in-progress of plant families, ordered alphabetically. Click a family name and the link will take you to a page listing corresponding entries. I am in the process up updating my species lists (by genus/species). I think this one may be more effective for some people then the other one I have listed under “Species list” in Pages. I’m trying to make the archive entries on this blog more navigable and searchable for people. Any feedback would be greatly welcome.

What about making a photo gallery w links to the article? Something like this: http://mindingthefarm.wordpress.com/photo-index-of-weeds-and-other-plants/
I also have a one for trees and shrubs:

Good idea… How do you make the Latin name pop up on the image when someone hovers over the image with cursor?
You need to use the “gallery” feature and your pics should have captions. Then the caption comes out when you hover over the pic.
To make the caption link to a page when you click it takes a few more steps. You need to open a different page and type the caption, then make it a link, then go to text view and copy the code, then paste the code in the caption box of the pic in the gallery.
Here’s a link to the WordPress support that explains the procedure more thoroughly: http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/does-oxygen-theme-support-galleries?replies=4#post-1079573
Also, since you have a lot of pics, I think it would be useful for readers who are searching for a particular species if you arranged your galleries by family.
