- Yeah, this paper notes a zone where paludosa, robur and oblongifolia all occur (and that the latter two are known to hybridise), then analyzes plants of each and announces some markers for each....without making any finding of hybridization...weird...unless I am missing something (???)

- I guess this is about tools for studying speciation among these Banksia species, not about actually studying it. Not much use for this article. Ucucha 18:50, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Will add comments hopefully in a few days. Ucucha 14:55, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
The Brown Antechinus has been split, and the populations south of Kioloa, New South Wales are now Antechinus agilis. See [1] and [2] for the ranges of the two species.
"Obovate" is defined on second, but not first occurrence.
- First paragraph of "Description" is rather long.
Define "lignotuber" on first occurrence (it's defined in "Ecology", but is mentioned several times before that).
Anything else on differences (or lack thereof) from other species?
The map makes it look like it occurs far south of Ulladulla, to the Victoria border.
The map would be clearer if it did not show all of Australia, so the actual distribution could be shown in more detail.
First sentence of "Cultivation" is rather confused. Villa San Donato is not in England, and what is the nurseryman in Bristol doing there?

- "private gardens in Clapham Common, Hackney by a nurseryman in Bristol" - some pretty strange geography there - could there be some connection with Clapton Nursery in Hackney maybe? Melburnian (talk) 05:24, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
- Nope - some other notable gardeners though....Casliber (talk · contribs) 14:48, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks, that all makes sense to me now with the clarifications.Melburnian (talk) 15:26, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

I'm passing the article now, but do consider the last remaining comment. Ucucha 02:12, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
- I rejigged it a little following your comment - I guess the question is whether to put a qualifier in front of the sentence about Italy like "Elsewhere in Europe," or "Outside of England," to distance it from the first comment about England. Or is it self-explanatory. Casliber (talk · contribs) 03:01, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
New image available[edit]
I see there is a few images of the inflorescence available, but perhaps this could be squeezed into the article.
question[edit]
Usually there's a little infobox at the bottom of the page where I can rate & comment on the article's content. I found this to be a pretty informative article, so, naturally, I wanted to give it a solid 5 stars. Unfortunately, I was unable to find this application on this page, is this due to a technical error? felt_friend 19:39, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- not sure - I think that feature has been discontinued. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 23:08, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
