Separate names with a comma.
Yep...agree to disagree. The abstract from the published paper states: This classification, edited by E. Davis, summarizes current thinking...
Acer amoenum may have some merits for being it's own species but I don't see anything formal indicating that has happened. If I search Dan...
I'm trying to say that the ANL list is wrong to list amoenum as it's own species. From the published paper you provided:...
This list cites Acer amoenum (Carriere) Hara (1954) [ATTACH] If you look at the citation you will find: Subspecies Synonym. Acer palmatum...
This leads to other problems with the next entry below on the list from page 5 of 9. [ATTACH] I question the next line: Acer amoenum var....

Didn't Cor van Gelderen try to group coral bark maples too a few years ago? Wasn't it something weird like red wood group? That didn't seem to...
I think it all adds to the confusion. Acer ‘Johnnie's Giant’ is even worse because there's over 160 species, so you have to take a guess. Who is...
