It was a pleasure to receive Marco Lacerda at Bosque Santa Lúcia this past Sunday morning.  Marco is co-author of a new publication on fruits of Brazil, FRUTAS NO BRASIL - NATIVAS E
EXÓTICAS.  He is also co-auther of BRAZILIAN FRUITS & CULTIVATED EXOTICS, the book to the left.  I'll be providing more information about publications in an upcoming post.
