Subspecies and variety categories
[edit]I'm not really fond of you creating subspecies and variety categories, I don't think the taxonomy is solid enough to justify it, and it doesn't account for the possibility that individuals observed in the wild are hybrids or intermediates (we only have pictures after all, not DNA sequences). But at least if you do, please check your spelling - you've made a mess of my Opuntia basilaris pictures, some are in nonexistent categories now. Stan Shebs (talk) 16:10, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Reclassification of cactus images
[edit]That's fine with me - in fact it would be helpful to add a note to the description page as well. I do appreciate your work at updating the taxa of these images, the UCBG labels especially seem not to have been updated in many years, and I've been consumed with processing my in-habitat photos lately.

Rebutia and Aylostera
[edit]Hello Uleli,
it is fine that you take care of the cactus images. But I disagree with the introduction of the ancient genus Aylostera with Category:Aylostera. A single study should not be the base of our classification, we need a system for the entire cactus family (recent books of Anderson or Hunt). Otherwise you have to change your system every time some botanist publishes a paper.
Best regards, --Don Manfredo (talk) 23:26, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
- I basically agree that we should use some standard and for Cactaceae, as Hunt & al. (2006). But I belive we have to consider new research when it comes along and ask the botanist currently involved. Last time the family was covered in a, more or less, scientific "encyclopedia" was over 40 years ago in Backeberg's Die Cactaceae (1958-1962) and before that in The Cactaceae (1919-1923) by Britton & Rose (as far as I know). Long time.... Uleli (talk) 14:01, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
Hepatica or Anemone? Be consistent.
[edit]Dear Uleli,
Please be consistent.
You have redirected Category:Hepatica transsilvanica to Category:Anemone transsilvanica. Category:Anemone hepatica is currently redirected to Category:Hepatica nobilis. Moreover there are also a Category:Hepatica, which contains pages Hepatica with Hepatica transsilvanica and Hepatica nobilis, as well as Hepatica nobilis and Hepatica transsilvanica.

Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.CategorizationBot (talk) 10:52, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

Cercis occidentalis
[edit]I think there's a bit of mixup - only var. texensis is changing species. GRIN's list for Cercis [1] still recognizes both C. canadensis and C. occidentalis, while USDA is calling the western one C. orbiculata. Var. texensis is a Texas/Oklahoma plant, not much chance we're going to see any of those way out here in Nevada. :-) Stan Shebs (talk) 14:42, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi Uleli, I just saw your picture File:Solanum cheesemanii 1.JPG and I doubt it's a Solanum-plant (and furthermore Solanum cheesemanii is now regarded as a synonym of Solanum aviculare). I guess the picture shows a specimen of Jaltomata procumbens, which is found in a few botanical gardens as well. --Carstor (talk) 12:56, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
- Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
- State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikimedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best to use CommonsHelper.
- If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
- Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
- Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.
If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.
It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.
You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file.
Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, follow the Commons:First steps guide. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Help desk.

- Misread the first time, File:1F5.jpg is a Fuchsia in the section Quelusia or a hybrid. Where did you take the photo. The most common species in cultivation is Fuchsia magellanica, but hybrids of unknown ancestry are even more common. Uleli (talk) 18:42, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Hello Uleli,
as you seem to take care to supply the pictures you upload with information and to find the correct categories, I'd like to explain how I'm trying to include/structure rose pictures - perhaps that will help you to understand how to find already existing gallerys of rose cultivars when uploading a picture (e.g. Rosa 'Lykkefund' ;-) ).
For rose cultivars, the gallery (named <Rosa 'cultivar name'>) is the first page I create - providing some information about that cultivar (grower, cultivar group, parentage, rose awards). If there are more than 4 or 5 pictures showing that cultivar, a category can be necessary. A link to the cultivar gallery should be provided in the correct alphabetical page (underpage of Rosa cultivars by alphabet) and if possible, the correct grower (e.g. Roses by Meilland), perhaps even the rose cultivar group (e.g. Hybrid Tea).
I hope that was helpful. Best wishes, --Anna reg (talk) 11:51, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

As you made several changes to its categorization, placing the image to the categories of different species, I was not sure enough to execute your requested filemove.

Veronica longifolia or Pseudolysimachion longifolium?
[edit]Dear Uleli,
Some clasifications are using the name Veronica longifolia others Pseudolysimachion longifolium. In the past I made the choice for Pseudolysimachion longifolium and redirected Veronica longifolia to it.
Currently there is an ambiguity. Category Pseudolysimachion longifolium is redirecting to category Veronica longifolia, but contains a sub-category Pseudolysimachion longifolium with a lot of pictures. Please clarify this issue.
Best regards, --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 14:36, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

- The three "genera" Alcantarea, Werauhia and Vriesea form a monophyletic group. Recognizing the two former genera may be defensible, but not imperative and will make Vriesea (strict sense) paraphyletic. Your two sources are publications of a horticultural society and are not scientific works. Do you have other recent sources? I would prefer following the World Checklist for Wikipedia Commons.

By the way, I've made template:WSSN to refer to synonyms in Wikispecies rather than listing them in commons. As you might know, these lists tend to vary and might be easier in the future to keep Wikispecies up to date. A consensus between Commons and Wikispecies would be preferable Uleli (talk) 20:21, 7 September 2011 (UTC).
- Hello, Rocket000 is in wikibreak but I am like its padawan.
- What is wrong with {{SN}} ?
- I don't really understand the part about "it does not group the names+authors".
- About {{WSSN}}, you should know that is not really liked in commons.
- I added many thousand {{Wikispecies}} but I see that many contributor suppress or comment them.
- I must confess, that I always find strange that wikispecies rarely provides its sources and never its classification (like APGIII in botanic).
- Best regards Liné1 (talk) 17:54, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
- The template work, but strange thing happen when you resize the window. Look at Category:Crinum × amabile.
- Wikispecies. There are a lot of work to be done here and some authors are not so serious, not giving good references. I try to use standard floras or databases, or up to date research if possible.
- What do people not like about the references to Wikispecies? I think it is a good tool to keep a consensus of the names used. And for synonyms, well they vary with time... easier to make the changes in one place Uleli (talk) 21:16, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Senecio
[edit]Hi Uleli,
My Senecio is not Senecio aureus? It looks like that plant. But I'm not an expert. Regards. DenesFeri (talk) 09:01, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

It is Prunus laurocerasus Uleli (talk) 14:18, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi,
Thank you for the Prunus, but I don't understand your question. What link? I looked at this picture File:Golden Ragwort Senecio aureus Flowers 2616px.jpg and for me it resembled with my own Senecio sp. Regards. DenesFeri (talk) 08:24, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
- That is the link I was requsting, I did't know which photo you talked about. There are many Senecio species and they are hard to identify from a photo. Uleli (talk) 18:39, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
So, you are not sure if this is File:1 Növény Kew Gardens 9 2009. szeptember.jpg Senecio aureus? Regards. DenesFeri (talk) 07:06, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
One more question. Is this really a Leucanthemum sp. File:1 - Leucanthemum sp. 1.jpg? DenesFeri (talk) 11:10, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
- You can ask as many questions as you wish. I'm glad if I can help you. This plant is a cultivar of Leucanthemum × superbum, possibly 'Crazy Daisy'. But there are others as 'Bishopstone', 'Phyllis Smith', 'Old Court' and 'Wirral Pride', which are similar. Uleli (talk) 14:34, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

Doubts about category change of File:Veronica hederifolia.jpg
[edit]Hi Uleli/archive,
I find it quite amazing how you can put plants into categories. Most of them seem to be alright as far as I can tell. I have some doubts about File:Veronica hederifolia.jpg, however, that it is really Veronica persica (see the respective file talk page). I believe that the file should be returned to Category:Unidentified Veronica. Best regards --Robert Flogaus-Faust (talk) 18:10, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- I went though the species of Veronica recorded for Michigan and came to that conclusion, but I have no problem putting it back in the unidentified category if you doubt the identity Uleli (talk) 08:14, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you! The USDA list for Michigan also contains Veronica polita, which might be more likely than Veronica persica. There are lots of other Veronica species completely unknown to me in the area, however. --Robert Flogaus-Faust (talk) 20:14, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
Thanks huge!

Oxalis
[edit]Hi, you changed Oxalis corniculata to Oxalis texana, then back to Oxalis corniculata and then to Oxalis repens'. Are you sure you know what you are doing? The plant has been identified six years ago as corniculata, so I would not change this unless I really really know what I'm doing. Due to the version history I'm now a little bit doubtful .. -- aka 08:29, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
I admit I made a mistake with Oxalis texana and I have corrected that. The name Oxalis repens is correct for the purple leaved Oxalis. The appropriate rank for this plant can be debatted, it was first given specific rank by Thunberg in 1781. In 1857 it was described again under the name Oxalis corniculata var. atropurpurea by Planchon. Recently, in 1996, it was given subspecific rank by Tzvelev as Xanthoxalis corniculata subsp. repens and there are some other combinations made in the past.
Research vy B.R.Nair and P. Kuriachan (2004) and notes by G.L. Nesom (2009) suggest it is at least partially reproductively isolated from Oxalis corniculata.
I felt it was a good idea to keep this plant separated from O. corniculata (strict sense) to await futher research and I choose the rank of species, until futher research is done and as late as 1984, the rank of species was proposed by Dostál. Separating these images here from O. corniculata avoid future corrections. To publish these images under the name O. repens can never be wrong, just out of date.

Uleli (talk) 09:19, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry, the changes you made, are a strong over-interpretation of these papers. I have got the paper of Nesom 2009: He still keeps var. atropurpurea and var. repens as synonyms of Oxalis corniculata. As I read his comment, it is not clear whether they are populational variants or whether they are at least partially reproductively isolated. The results from Malaysia maybe are not transferable to populations in the rest of the world. So, it is too early make these moves. --Franz Xaver (talk) 17:04, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- I can see that my arguments have been weak. I just intended the best for Commons. When I noted that this plant was recognized, at various ranks, by so many authors and that the work of Nair & Kuriachan suggested the same I thought it would serve Commons best to separate them. But I put the images back for now on:

Uleli (talk) 19:01, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Of course, the different color of the leaves is suggestive to recognize these plants as something different. However, as far as I see, usually only varieties are distinguished. How can we be sure that all plants with leaves suffused purplish red are the same? Anyway, we have to follow recent literature. I do not know any recent floristic or taxonomic treatment, where Oxalis repens ist distinguished on species rank. --Franz Xaver (talk) 20:21, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Nicotiana alata
[edit]Hi, what is the reason for the name change? The plant was raised from seeds which were named as the original file. regards, --Holger Casselmann (talk) 09:36, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- 'Dwarf White Bedder' is a cultivar from of Nicotiana × sanderae and not of Nicotiana alata. All dwarf cultivars of "Nicotiana alata", regardless of color, can be refered to this hybrid, but is is not unusual that they are called "alata" in the trade. The true Nicotiana alata is a tall plant. I belive 'Dwarf White Bedder' is introduced by the seed company Thompson and Morgan.

Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.CategorizationBot (talk) 12:38, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello Uleli, I saw your very good template "fohy" in Wikispecies and later I saw the same template in Commons. The form is for me not important. My question to the software expert Liné1: Is it possible to create this template in that way, that it is usable for galleries and categories with the same "template:fohy" (like the template:tysp). I hope it will be o.k for you. Greetings. Orchi (talk) 23:41, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
- Yes it is ok, though I don't like the "label" appearance of neither tysp or fohy... plain text woud be better on both, but that is a matter of taste. I think the pages looks messy with all different add-like labels. The fohy info does not need a stop-sign in my view. Why not just a simple line around as in the other parts of the "page heads": See Anemone nemorosa. One box for each part; vernacular names, taxobox, wikispecies, synonyms etc. Uleli (talk) 00:16, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

But, as I'm really not a specialist, some might be wrong. I'm quite sure that you have them on your watchlist. Just check them once (we have time). I don't need any annotation from you, because I have them on my watchlist too (and on my Excel-sheet where I organize all).

Wrong category for File:Bildtankstelle 1 093.jpg
[edit]Hi Uleli/archive, you moved the image File:Bildtankstelle 1 093.jpg to Category:Lampranthus. This is obviously wrong. Judging from the description of the image ("Bottlebrush") this is probably something from the genus Calistemon or from the genus Beaufortia (see en:Bottlebrush). I know neither of these, but judging from the images on the web, Callistemon looks much more like this plant than Beaufortia. Unfortunately en:Callistemon points out that some species from New Caledonia are now considered Melaleuca species. So we might place the image into Category:Unidentified Callistemon or Category:Unidentified Myrtaceae or just revert your edit and leave it in Category:Unidentified plants.

Camellia cultivars vs Rhododendron simsii
[edit]Hi Uleli,
Congratulations for your botany barnstar!
Please look at this two pictures. I think I give them a wrong name. Perhaps they are Rhododendron simsii and not Camellia cultivars. What is your opinion? File:Ericales - Camellia cultivars - kew 1.jpg and File:Ericales - Camellia cultivars - kew 4.jpg Regards. DenesFeri (talk) 09:35, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you.... both your photos are of an unknown Rhododendron cultivar.... not R. simsii. It is virtually impossibly to say which cultivar, as there are so many of them. Most large red cultivars are complex hybrids involing R. arboreum. Uleli (talk) 09:39, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
OK, thanks too! DenesFeri (talk) 09:41, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
Hello Uleli, thank You for ident. Many Greetings --Hedwig Storch (talk) 08:48, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
Rename of Ghislain's files
[edit]Dear Ueli,
Thank you for renaming some misidentified files of Ghislain's galleries (4 pics Ghislain called Gentiana burseri (Pyrenees) [misidentification] --> Gentiana lutea (Pyrenees) [correct identification]).
When I identified and classified Ghislain's pictures I was not yet a Filemover.
Since I am now a Filemover, I am can rename misnamed files.
I have in the meantime reviewed the plants of the Flora Batava and, when classifying them, I have renamed some misspelled names or misidentified pictures.
Perhaps I should now begin to systematically review Ghislain's galleries (more than 3,000 pictures!), looking for still misnamed files and rename them properly.
Best regards from Belgium, --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 08:14, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
Symphytum tuberosum?
[edit]Hi Uleli,
Could this File:1 Plant sp. - Kew 82.jpg be Symphytum tuberosum? Regards. DenesFeri (talk) 09:47, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
"Lysimachia arvensis"?
[edit]Hi Uleli - what's your justification for this move? It looks decidedly premature to me, e.g. "Previous suggestions that Anagallis and Trientalis could be ingroups of Lysimachia were not corroborated by our results". I'd suggest that Anagallis arvensis be returned to its traditional status until disputes over its phylogeny become more clearly resolved. - MPF (talk) 14:21, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
- I have followed Manns & Anderberg (2009), but I have no objection to your suggestion. I did't see major disputes when I checked though. Uleli (talk) 22:24, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
- Manns, U. & Anderberg, A.A. 2009. New combinations and names in Lysimachia (Myrsinaceae) for species of Anagallis, Pelletiera and Trientalis. Willdenowia 39: 49-54 [14].
- I have followed Manns & Anderberg (2009), but I have no objection to your suggestion. I did't see major disputes when I checked though. Uleli (talk) 22:24, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks! Looking at the paper, the key is in their opinion "Merging all the genera in Lysimachia is here considered better than splitting the latter into several smaller genera"; I'd presume the paper I cited would take the opposite view, and I suspect in the long term, that opposing opinion is the one more likely to gain favour as Manns & Anderberg's broad interpretation leaves Lysimachia huge and rather unwieldy. There'll be other species pages here that are hard to deal with for the moment, but Anagallis arvensis is easy as it is the type species of a Linnaean genus so remains the same even if Anagallis is split into 2 or more genera (as Manns' earlier [2007] paper in Willdenowia suggests Anagallis too is paraphyletic).

Clematis
[edit]Hi Uleli,
Thank you for identifying the Clematis sp.! Regards. DenesFeri (talk) 09:13, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
I asked a real expert to solve the upgrade of the Template:Cultivar. I think, Liné1 had produced a good result. Perhaps you check it. Greetings. Orchi (talk) 09:16, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hello
- I did the modifications you asked. I also:
- improved the doc
- improved parameter parentX for which you don't need to provide the syntax for the link, but the link is automatically provided.
- I have some questions:
- When the year is not provided, would'nt you prefer to display "(year ?)" or "(year unknown)"
- When parents are not provided, would'nt you prefer to display "Parentage: Unknown"
- Cheers Liné1 (talk) 09:24, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
Hello Uleli,
how did you come up with the name Kerner Bijeli? AFAIK, this grape veriety is simply called Kerner, nothing more. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 17:09, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- My mistake, I have corrected the error. I get the cultivar names from Vitis International Variety Catalogue (VIVC), supplemented by National Grape Registry (NGR). Uleli (talk) 17:23, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- OK and thanks. I have deleted the misnamed category. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 18:09, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
new category 2
[edit]Hi Uleli,
Please I need a new category for this picture File:Malvales - Hibiscus aff. genevii - kew 1.jpg. Would you make it? Regards. DenesFeri (talk) 12:16, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
- Hi - I would put it in Category:Unidentified Hibiscus, but try to get information from Kew about htis specimen so the name can be corrected in the future. Uleli (talk) 20:41, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
OK, I will see what can I do. Thanks. DenesFeri (talk) 07:46, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Information, thank you.
[edit]Hi.
Where do you get the information that says that Lilium candidum is a synonym to Lilium regale? You ordered this move: http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Lilium_regale_-_20100702.jpg&action=history
The Plant List says not!
Thanks C T Johansson (talk) 10:16, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
- Lilium candidum and Lilium regale is not the same species, but the flower in the image can not possibly be L. candidum. Lilium candidum has a pure white flower without yellow throat nor pinkish outside. Your flower match Lilium regale.
-
Lilium candidum
-
Lilium regale
- Thank you for the explanation. The plant must have a fault label in Berlin botanischen garten. I hope they will change their label. Thank you for the correction :) 83.233.121.79 07:59, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
Hello Uleli, I thank you for identification. Many greetings --Hedwig Storch (talk) 08:06, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
I wonder if you might have another look on this template. There are some cases when the template does not work perfectly. It is when the cultivar is not the product of a hybrid/crossing. Sports are mutations from one parent and there are also species cultivars which are merely collections from the wild. Could the template be arranged to cover these too? Or is it better to make a similar template for these types of cultivars? See: Category:Tulipa 'Beauty of Apeldoorn' where this should be no "parentage" or at least no "× ?". Best wishes Uleli (talk) 07:01, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
- Liné1 (talk) 18:13, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
- You are realy gifted! Thank you. Yes, if possible add some additional parameters as trade name(s) which should be in Small Caps and without the single quote marks. And one optional for synonyms.
- I would like to change the word "descripion" in Cultivar description, as a description in botany and hortiulture usually refers to "how they look" not the cultivar data. Why not just "Cultivar:"?
- I was even able to link the sport name (see Category:Tulipa 'Beauty of Apeldoorn').
- I do like the box too? Maybe you can fix the box in Template:WikispeciesCompact too. The box is short and makes not too nice line breaks, see Category:Narcissus sect. Tazettae. It would be more consistent if it had the same length as the other boxes.
- Again, thank you for your job Uleli (talk) 17:27, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
- I added |tradenames=
- with Small caps as you said. Is that what you wanted ?
- I specified in the doc that it should be the trade names in the original country and that {{VN}} should be used for other languages.
- I did not add anything about synonyms because {{SN}} is meant for that.
- I suppressed "description" from the title
- About the {{WikispeciesCompact}}: personnaly, I don't like it. I prefer {{Wikispecies}} which is on the right: Varanus for example.
- I added |tradenames=
- Cheers 19:39, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
- Well thank you again! I've changed template:WSSN so it will go on the left side as you prefer. It is a taste thing, personally I don't like when Wikis looks like an advertising page... but I'm only one. You made the cultivar-template excellent! By the way, trade names has nothing to do with vernacular names. It's a marketing thing. Tradenames can me protecteed market names.
- ex: The rose cultivar 'Poulrohill' has the tradename Lill Lindfors™ in Sweden, the tradename Egeskov© Castle is used in Denmark and Enduring Spirit™ for other countries. Sometimes a tradenamne is used on an old cultivar to bring it up on the market again.
- It is only a way of protecting markets and choosing the best name for every country you're trying to sell plants in. But in the end, these market names are often used by garderners so it is good with a tradename line in the template. The cultivar name can only be one, and it is global Uleli (talk) 20:09, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

Crinum overreach
[edit]While I think it's useful to note that an identification is doubtful, I point out that I was careful to follow UCBG's labelling, and given that they're a serious botanical garden, I think you would need either personal observation of the specimens, or agreement from UCBG folks that their specimens were mislabelled before overriding their judgement. Even worse, you've altered my text while leaving it attributed to me alone, which makes it looks as though I'm disparaging the abilities and competence of the professionals in charge of UCBG. Effectively it's the same as editing someone's talk page to make it sounds like they're saying something the opposite of what was intended. So I'm going to be reverting some of these changes to be more careful about who is saying what, to clarify that your identification is only on your own authority, and I'll thank you not to misrepresent my work in the future.

Selenicereus
[edit]Hello Uleli, are you sure about this. The tag in the botanic garden stated that it is actually a Selenicereus grandiflorus, but I cannot really judge it. Best regards, Poco a poco (talk) 12:12, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- I am quite sure, but is alway's a possibility that the plant is a hybrid. Selenicereus grandiflorus is quite rare in cultivation, but the name is almost mythic so most Selenicereus are given that name... even in botanical gardens. S. grandiflorus was the first species to be grown in Europe, but most plants was lost. Possibly because these plants came from the West Indies and was more tender than later introductions of other species from Mexico, like S. coniflorus and S. pteranthus.
- True S. grandiflorus has rather slender, many ribbed stems, usually 6-8. The flowers has often more or less brownish hairs of the flower tube. S. coniflorus has thicker stems with 4-5 ribs and always white hairs of the flower tube. S. coniflorus is similar to S. pteranthus in all charactes except that the spines are long. S. pteranthus has very short spines.
- Compare:
- Selenicereus grandiflorus
- Selenicereus grandiflorus - flower
- Selenicereus coniflorus
- Selenicereus coniflorus - flower
Uleli (talk) 12:32, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- The type specimen of Selenicereus grandiflorus does not show the stems charactes, but has brownish flower hairs. Type specimen of S. grandiflorus. Another element that Linneaus refered to in his original descrition was this plate of Volckamer: [16]. Uleli (talk) 12:49, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- Enough! :) Convinced, I moved the file and updated the description. It is actually good news, because it is the first picture of that species in Commons. Thanks a lot! Poco a poco (talk) 13:32, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, I couldn't help myself :-) Uleli (talk) 15:06, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Parodia and synonymes
[edit]Hallo Uleli,
these days I give taxonavigation, links and interwiki links to all Cactaceae species on commons, and I noticed that you made new categories for Ritterocactus, Bolivicactus, Notocactus and other synonymes of Parodia. Plant images should be categorized in only one species category (for example: not in Category:Ritterocactus mammulosus and additionally in Category:Parodia mammulosa). Please use Template:Synonym taxon category redirect for the synonym categories, then all future uploads will be gathered in the one right category. (I am interested, which really are the accepted names for these species? All wikipedias and databases still use Parodia). Greetings from --Thiotrix (talk) 16:52, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
- I might have been a little premature on this, but followed Doweld on Parodia and added the extra categories for these alternative names.... which might be followed in time. But I agree with you to allow only one category and redirect the others... I'll do that in time... or do you have the time to help? Uleli (talk) 20:00, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
