Currently the web site provides keys to and descriptions for the genera of neotropical Ericaceae, although not all have been published or formally treated yet in a taxonomic or revisionary sense.  Along with over 550 descriptions of neotropical Ericaceae species, and relevant taxonomic information, nearly 500 species of neotropical Ericaceae are illustrated by over 1400  images.  Additional information includes  the concept of "rare and endangered", meaning that the species is very local in its known distribution (i.e., is known only from a few localities), has been collected fewer than 10 times overall, and that its habitat is or has been undergoing severe transformation (i.e., destruction).
