Okay, sorry, the time travel thing was a bit over the top editorialising, but the rest is all true Bbb23, and properly cited. 2A02:A45D:25BD:1:B493:65FB:72FB:6ACC (talk) 19:36, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
 * You would do better to write edit summaries that are simple and clear rather than ones with inflammatory rhetoric. Creates a presumption of disruption from the get-go. That plus the fact that you edit an area of the project that very few editors know anything about (including me) may trigger undeserved reverts. Take care.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:48, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Yeah, sure, you're right of course. Sorry again, POV sometimes boils over -I gripe about the IUCN: going through internet archive versions of the Red List, it appears that the website maintainers sometimes obfuscate mistakes or add new info to old assessments, and there are 'fake' assessments, and old assessments cited in articles which have somehow disappeared from the present website, which is all rather annoying. For this species they appear to have added a new assessment in 2018 fake-dated 1997, but with the new conservation status given in 2017 -that's just screwed up, those website pages don't deserve digital object identifiers. So you're completely right, I'm into minutiae of obscure stuff. The time travel thing, well, I really had a laugh though -the press release actually claims the work did in 2017 inspired them to find the plant in 2013 (albeit without giving the dates)= continuity error? Whomever wrote that press release didn't actually read the journal article beyond the first sentences of the abstract...
