[APWG] Dandelion follow-up

[Richard Old]

The attribution for the maps is in the upper left. It is quite small due to
the fact that I had to significantly reduce the size of the images to meet
the list file size requirements. It reads:
Floristic Synthesis of NA copyright 2012 BONAP

My last post prompted another listserver to send me a correction to the
dandelion comment (please see below). Thank you, Richard. I stand corrected.
Perhaps Richard could also let us know how these maps are attributed (I
forgot to ask). 

Meanwhile, I'll take the opportunity to say that, despite their bad rep in
some circles, dandelions also have a long-standing reputation as an
important part of the herbalists medicine cabinet. But that's a discussion
for the Medicinal Plant Working Group list! 

Thanks, Patricia

Patricia: 
The link which you sent to the lists reflects the typically outdated status
of the USDA PLANTS site.   
What is referred to there as Taraxacum officinale ssp. ceratophorum is now
considered a separate native species (T. ceratophorum).   
Please note the attached distribution maps.
