[PCA] Dandelion follow-up

[Patricia_DeAngelis at fws.gov]

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The link which you sent to the lists reflects the typically outdated 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.
