Notes
[Scape] 33 inches when growing. Com. 13.11.66. Herbarium Hookerianum 1867.; This may be Taraxacum commixtum Hagl.. The red achenes (c 3.6 mm minus cane) and large involucral bracts strongly suggest this sp., but the styles are dark, and the leaf shape is wrong. I prefer to call it Taraxacum arenastrum A.J. Richards ad inter, but the locality must be revisited before the species can be described. - Richards 1969. T. fulviforme Dt does not have red achenes. No fulviforme! (I do not understand my identification) No commixtum! I agree with arenastrum. The pyramis is short. Take care for a spectalia - species? No unguilobium!? I must know this form but from where? v Soest. 1969.; More information given
