(Opt-out instructions.) --DPL bot (talk) 09:23, 28 February 2018 (UTC) Epithet corrections – a bit moreHi, I noticed that you wrote that the ae forms were "archaic". I don't think this is quite the right word. Earlier botanists formed epithets by using the genitive of the name of a different plant + a noun for the part of the plant. Thus oleaefolium = "of-Olea leaf" = "leaf of Olea". The alternative was to join the two nouns by a "compounding letter", either -i- or -o-, thus oleifolium = "Olea-leaf". The botanical community decided to standardize on the latter, because (as far as I know) this was more classical, and in that sense more archaic. Peter coxhead (talk) 19:43, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

ΚέφαλοςBeste Dwergenpaartje, you have added the following etymological information to Cephalopyge trematoides: "(Greek: Κέφαλος Kephalos, "head")". But Κέφαλος is actual the name of a Greek mythological figure, whereas written with a lower-case kappa, it is the name of a species of mullet. In ancient Greek κεφαλή is actually the word for head. Is your source mistaken or did you misinterpreted the source? With kind regards, Wimpus (talk) 11:52, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

September 2019: Leucospermum hypophyllocarpodendronI am having difficulty understanding a term introduced by you to the above article in March of 2018 in this edit. The term, with which I am unfamiliar, is "cringy", which appears several times in the article to describe fine hairs appearing on the new leaves. It apparently is an adjective. Would you be able to clarify for me and other readers what the meaning of that term, as you have used it in the article, might be? Thank you.--Quisqualis (talk) 03:35, 14 September 2019 (UTC)

If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add OrtholobiumThe position of Otholobium at present seems to be a mess. I see that you created most of the article. It appears to be agreed by sources such as Plants of the World Online that the African species of Otholobium are synonymous with Psoralea (which is the older name), so they are treated in that genus. Thus Otholobium accrescens is a synonym of Psoralea accrescens. The problem with the South American species is that they cannot be left in Otholobium, because the type species of that genus was the South African Psoralea caffra, so when the genera are combined, Otholobium becomes a synonym of Psoralea. As of now, South American species like Otholobium glandulosum are treated as "unplaced" by PoWO. I do think that we have to be clear that the South African species are now placed in Psoralea – note for example that Psoralea accrescens is listed in the Psoralea article. There's a real danger of articles being created for some species in both Psoralea and Otholobium. Peter coxhead (talk) 18:32, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
