iNaturalist request (2)

Starting a new section with #100 as the previous was getting tedious scrolling to the end! The ability of people on iNat to believe that the tree planted in their garden, street or local park in the colder parts of Europe or North America, is a tropical rarity growing wild, never ceases to amaze . . . . Pinus wallichiana (a popular ornamental tree) seems the main confusion culprit, despite the needles in 5s not 3s, and the long slender cones.

b1 Pinus ponderosa, in Aarhus Botanical Garden, red X
b2 Pinus wallichiana, red X
b3 Pinus wallichiana, red X
b4 Pinus wallichiana, red X

b18 Pinus wallichiana, red X
b19 Pinus wallichiana, red X
b20 Pinus taeda, local native (seems people confused 'wilted' with 'pendulous' for broken branch! The cone with spined scales is P. taeda, though.

Thanks! Another long list today, these are all verifications (and a few infraspecific refinements) for a kid Oceanf who is good with his IDs, but has a lot of contributions with no responses; I felt sad about that so wanted to help him a bit, with his conifers at least:

b21 Pinus echinata
b22 Pinus rigida
b23 Pinus contorta ssp. latifolia
b24 Pinus contorta ssp. latifolia
b25 Pinus ponderosa ssp. brachyptera
b26 Pinus ponderosa ssp. ponderosa
b27 Pinus torreyana (out of native range, but looks naturalised, rather than planted)
b28 Pinus torreyana
b29 Pinus attenuata
b30 Pinus radiata (out of native range, but obvious naturalised not planted)
b31 Pinus sabiniana
b32 Pinus massoniana
b33 Pseudotsuga menziesii ssp. menziesii
b34 Tsuga canadensis
b35 Abies concolor ssp. lowiana
b36 Abies concolor ssp. concolor
b37 Cunninghamia lanceolata
b38 Yes, definite Taxodium distichum, not any other Taxodium; probably planted, but hard to be sure. Look further upstream for any big planted specimens it could have seeded from!
b39 Juniperus virginiana (seedling with juvenile foliage)
b40 Juniperus virginiana
b41 Juniperus virginiana
b42 Juniperus scopulorum
b43 Juniperus californica (that the cones look odd is due to their being under-developed, aborted, and dried out)
b44 Juniperus communis var. depressa
b45 Calocedrus decurrens
b46 Agreed Taxus baccata (naturalised)

Then also this one:

b47 is Pinus sylvestris (short blue-green needles in pairs, flaky orange upper crown bark; planted in garden so red X) - this one is important as it is used as an example of Pinus ponderosa on an Identification Notes page here - could you also let the author of that page know that one of their examples is wrong ID, please!

And finally:

b48 is correctly identified (Larix occidentalis, not possible L. decidua as suggested at the start), but is well out of range, an obvious forestry plantation that needs a red X (no evidence if any regeneration)

Thanks! - MPF (talk) 21:07, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

b49 is Carya illinoinensis, note winged nuts (Juglans is unwinged)

Some more where people think a common tree is a rare one!

b50 Larix sibirica, red X (this is the main species, and the only larch, used in forestry experiments in Greenland)
b51 Larix decidua (the expected local native species)
b52 Larix decidua (the expected local native species)
b53 Larix decidua, red X (forestry plantation)
b54 Larix decidua (cones without visible bracts); mature planted trees and naturalised self-sown young trees
b55 Larix decidua (cones without visible bracts); likely forestry plantation with no evidence of regeneration presented, so red X
b56 Cedrus deodara, red X

And maybe you want to comment on: inat. Rudolphous (talk) 21:16, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! For @ alexbinck - identification as Baldcypress is not too difficult; Pondcypress has much shorter, more scale-like leaves, and Montezuma Cypress usually has more oval (less globular) cones. As to where it has come from - yes, it could be self-sown, but you really need evidence of a seed source, a mature tree further upstream, as I already suggested. Taxodium seed is large and heavy; it is water-dispersed, not by wind, so it can't have blown in. But it could easily be planted; 'guerilla gardening' is a strange thing (I've done it myself!), and exotics can turn up planted in very unexpected places. Perhaps someone grew the seed at home, and when they realised it would get large, planted it out in the local open land, rather than in their too-small home garden. The absence of pruning doesn't mean anything; the tree is 10-15 years old (perhaps more), and any sign of pre-planting ground preparation will have long been grown over by other plants. Hope this helps!

b67 is (contra @ chickeroni) definitely Pinus ponderosa, and from the cone shape and the needles mixed 2s and 3s, is further safely identifiable as P. ponderosa ssp. scopulorum. However, I'm very dubious these are self-sown, rather than new park planting, so without further evidence, I'd award them a red X - MPF (talk) 23:11, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hope all's well! A longer list today, please :-)

69 is Pinus cembroides. Both species can have needles predominantly in 2s, but the bark here is typical fissured P. cembroides, not scaly P. remota; and no P. remota in BBNP.
70 is Pinus cembroides; no P. remota in BBNP.
71 is Pinus cembroides; umbo (the brown spot on each cone scale) is too large for P. remota, also no P. remota in BBNP.
72 is Pinus cembroides; umbo is too large and protuberant for P. remota, also no P. remota in BBNP.
73 is Pinus cembroides; pinyon seedling unidentifiable to species, but P. cembroides common in BBNP, while P. remota does not occur there.
74 is Pinus cembroides; pinyon seedling unidentifiable to species, but P. cembroides common in BBNP, while P. remota does not occur there.

And a couple more, please :-)

88 is Pinus cembroides; deeply fissured bark, leaf sheaths forming rolled back 'rosettes'.
89 is Pinus brutia; needles in 2s not 5s, cone scales with flat dorsal umbo. A popular ornamental tree in southern California; red X.

Super, thanks! A response to the note by @ joshua_tx on #83, please: "Thanks! I have yet to meet a self-sown pine seedling that has evolved resistance to lawnmowers :-) This tree is clearly planted in a mown (and probably irrigated) lawn, and 'cared for' (stem pruned up). I did check photo #2 against street view footage for the car park 50 m to the northeast of the mapped site; it didn't match, but the street view footage is 2014, and the white barriers in the 2019 photo could have been added subsequently (as could the tree; it is young, and if planted as a large specimen, could easily be less than 5 years planted). I also checked several alternative car parks nearby on street view, but couldn't find any match - but again, all were 2014 footage. Of pine survival at the elevation (650 m at the mapped location), I'd think it could, if it is irrigated, as that lawn appears to be. The nearest definitely irrigated lawn I could find on the 2014 footage was Cottonwood Campground, 9 km ESE. - EDIT I think I may have found it, [https ://maps.app.goo.gl/H8pkiUy1hb9U5nRe6] (remove the space!), Fort Pena Colorado park, Marathon; everything matches including the young Pinyon (right) and the Stop sign" - MPF (talk) 21:15, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

90 is Pinus johannis - leaves in 3s (not mostly 2s of P. remota) and epistomatic; cones with very thin scales.
91 is Pinus johannis - leaves in 3s (not mostly 2s of P. remota) and epistomatic; cones with very thin scales.

Thanks! - MPF (talk) 01:42, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A couple of revisits, please!

71 - @joshua_tx : I have yet to see any definite P. remota material from BBNP, either posted here on iNat, or elsewhere; that's not to say it doesn't occur. But anyway, this specimen is definitely P. cembroides, the large umbos (>⅓ of the scale width) on the cone scales exclude P. remota (small, sunken umbo typically <¼ of the scale width and invariably <⅓ of the scale width). The needle count is not significant; P. cembroides typically has a mix of 2s and 3s, and predominantly 2s is frequent in many individuals. Several 3s are actually visible in photos 2 & 3 of this observation. And finally, P. remota sheds its fascicle sheath much faster than P. cembroides; on 2nd year fascicles, P. remota has only tiny basal scales of the sheath left, while P. cembroides has characteristic rosettes of curled-back scales. The latter are readily visible in photo 3 in several shoots just below the pollen cones.
69 - also @joshua_tx : as on the other observation 51235479, and additionally, the bark here is clearly typical P. cembroides, thick and fissured, not scaly. And, as @silversea_starsong mentions, many of its needles are in 3s. Worth adding too, this is a high profile site; there are about 10 or so other observations of this same tree, listed as verified P. cembroides.

And a few new ones, please:

92 is Juniperus sp.; leaves in whorls of 3 (arranged spirally in Pinus seedlings).
93 is Pinus cembroides; dull green (not bright green) leaves, semi-persistent leaf fascicle sheaths.
94 is Pinus cembroides; cone with thick scales and large umbos.
95 is probably Pinus cembroides but hard to rule out P. johannis; definitely not P. remota though (needles in 3s).
96 is Pinus cembroides; cone with thick scales and large umbos; leaves mixed 2s and 3s.
97 is Pinus cembroides; cone with thick scales and large umbos. Nothing to suggest hybrid with P. culminicola, either.
98 is Pinus cembroides; cone with thick scales and large umbos; leaves mixed 2s and 3s.
99 is Pinus cembroides; cone with thick scales and large umbos; leaves mixed 2s and 3s; leaf sheaths forming persistent rosettes.
100 is Pinus johannis; leaves in 3s (not mostly 2s of P. remota) and epistomatic; cones with thin scales.
101 is Pinus cembroides; leaves hypostomatic, mostly in 3s but some 2s. No evidence of P. culminicola; pollen already shed by mid May rules this (and P. johannis) out.
102 young seedling not yet identifiable, but most likely Pinus cembroides; Pinus johannis is also possible, but not P. remota, which does not occur anywhere near 2,800 m altitude. Best tagged as the commoner species (P. cembroides).
103 "Es parte de una reforestación" = planted, = red X, please!
104 same site as #103, so also red X

Many thanks! - MPF (talk) 00:33, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks! Very much appreciated :-)

Sometimes it is difficult to know what to do! As just one example, for Picea rubens, there are 46 claims of this American species in Europe . . . and every single one is wrong! Genuine Picea rubens is exceedingly rare in Europe, only in a few major botanical gardens. In the great majority of cases (though not quite all), it is due to mistranslation, English "Red" Spruce (Picea rubens) ≠ Danish "Rød"gran, Swedish "Röd"gran, German "Rot"fichte, Italian Abete "rosso" (which are all Picea abies, but translate into English as "red" spruce). I can list them all for you, but it is a big job! And then there are so many other misidentifications, too . . . - MPF (talk) 00:32, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Have changed them all. We can keep doing something hopefully it sums up to something big Rudolphous (talk) 07:27, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks! Unfortunately, just a bit too quick off the mark :-) it wasn't quite all of them were Picea abies, one in Spain I can remember was Chamaecyparis lawsoniana (!!), and there were one or two others that were something else too; I'll have a check! - MPF (talk) 10:35, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

r54 is correct identity, but the coordinates are switched; it should be Lat: 43.550679 Lon: -71.74496 that takes it off the Greenland Icecap (!!) and places it in typical Picea rubens habitat. Its accuracy ±1192.45 km can surely be narrowed down a bit too :-)

rem2 is Pinus johannis - needles in 3s, not 2s, and epistomatic, with white stomatal lines on inner faces; also, at 1.860 m, probably too high for P. remota. Note that photo 3, the large Pinus is a different species!
rem3 is Pinus johannis - needles in 3s, not 2s, and epistomatic, with white stomatal lines on inner faces; cones with very thin scales; also, at 2.870 m, much too high for P. remota.
rem4 is Pinus johannis - growth habit with thick, pale, upcurved shoots resembles this better than P. remota, and at around 2.100 m, too high for P. remota. Unfortunately not possible to count needle number!
rem5 is Pinus johannis - growth habit with thick, pale, upcurved shoots and probable epistomatic (bicoloured) foliage resembles this better than P. remota, and at 2.500 m, much too high for P. remota. Unfortunately not possible to count needle number!
rem6 is Pinus johannis - growth habit with thick, pale, upcurved shoots and probable epistomatic (bicoloured) foliage resembles this better than P. remota, and at 2.000 m, too high for P. remota. Unfortunately not possible to count needle number!
rem7 is Pinus cembroides - growth habit with 'spiky' branchlets and thick fissured bark (visible when photo brightened!) is typical of this species.

Excellent, thanks! Yes, there are young saplings between the planted trees in fi7 so it is becoming established as a potential invasive species. fi4 has young plants growing as well, so that too can be given a green 'wild' tick.

A few new ones, please!

Pmur1 is Pinus contorta, widely planted in forestry and often invasive in UK; needles too short for P. muricata.
Pmur2 is Pinus radiata; persistent asymmetrical cones without spines, cultivated red X.
Pmur3 is Pinus nigra; symmetrical cones without spines, most likely cultivated but could be naturalised (it's in your area, I'll let you decide whether to give a red X or not!).
Pmur4 is Pinus nigra; cultivated red X (planted tree in a housing estate). P. muricata is not winter-hardy in this region.

A few more, please!

This one, could you put a red X for 'Location is accurate', and paste in the text below, please:

c1: A complex case! The tree is correctly identified as Pinus aristata, but significantly, in pic #2, with Abies lasiocarpa behind and Pinus reflexa at the right edge, so a high altitude location (min 2500 m, more likely ~3000 m or more). The trees are all old, so not planted by man (unless by Native Americans!). I checked along the entire length of the green 'uncertainty circle' on US-89A on street view, and it is all moderate altitude (2000-2200 m) Pinyon-Juniper (sadly nearly all recently burnt), except for a little Ponderosa at the highest part (2250 m) at the south end; nothing anywhere to suggest any high altitude species either beside, or away from, the road. So therefore, I fear the location cannot be correct. Is it feasible you took it in the San Francisco Peaks and misremembered the location on entering it here 3 months later?
c2 is Pinus longaeva - no white resin spots on the leaves, and the common bristlecone species at Bryce Canyon.
c3 is Pinus nigra - needles in 2s, no bristles on cones. Obvious cultivated plant, red X.
c4 is Pinus sylvestris (the common local native) - no bristles on the cones!

This next will make me popular, demolishing a species' sole iNat record :-)

c5 is Thuja occidentalis; leaf shape is wrong for T. sutchuenensis (compared with photos of herbarium specimens), and the location (urban Wuhan) well outside that species' very limited native range. Thuja occidentalis is commonly cultivated in China; presume planted rather than naturalised.

Couple of others from the same observer:

c6 is Metasequoia glyptostroboides; planted (red X!) in urban Wuhan.
c7 ditto, verifying (and presume planted).

Excellent, thanks! Some more checks on extralimital or near-limits Pinus aristata:

All correct ID, but cultivated:

c8 is Pinus aristata, but planted in Yampa River Botanic Park so red X.
c9 is Pinus aristata, but planted in a garden so red X.
c10 is Pinus aristata, but planted in a garden so red X.
c11 is Pinus aristata, but is planted in a hotel forecourt (see street view!) so red X.
c12 is Pinus aristata, but is planted in a housing forecourt (see street view!) so red X.
c13 is Pinus aristata, but planted in a garden so red X.
c14 is Pinus aristata, but planted in a ski resort so red X.
c15 is Pinus aristata, but planted in a ski resort so red X.

These all misidentified:

c16 is Pinus ponderosa ssp. scopulorum; leaves long, in 2s and 3s, not short and 5s. Planted (so red X) in a row beside houses.
c17 is Pinus ponderosa ssp. scopulorum, an aborted immature cone; cone scale spines stout, not slender bristles.
c18 is Pinus contorta ssp. latifolia; leaves short, but in 2s, not 5s.
c19 is Pinus mugo; leaves short, but in 2s, not 5s; cones without bristles or spines. Planted in a garden, red X.
c20 is Pinus edulis; small cones with few scales, altitude too low for Pinus aristata.
c21 is Pinus edulis; small cones with few scales, altitude too low for Pinus aristata.
c22 is Pinus flexilis; leaves in 5s, but too long for Pinus aristata, and without white resin spots.
c23 is Pinus ponderosa ssp. scopulorum; cone scale spines stout, not slender bristles. Just because it is growing on Bristlecone Drive doesn't make it a Bristlecone!

At last!!

c24 Verifying this one is Pinus aristata, and wild too.

And now some extralimital Pinus palustris for their red X, please :-)

c72 in Tulsa Botanic Gardens.
c73 in Mt Cuba Botanic Gardens; no sign of any potential parent tree on satellite view, so safe to say planted, not wild.
c74 red X for location: no sign on either street view or satellite view (and even if it exists nearby, is in an urban area, so can presume planted).
c75 with planting marker post, so planted.
c76 with planting plaque, so planted; next 4 are all same individual
c77 as c76
c78 as c76
c79 as c76
c80 as c76
c81 planted in a garden
c82 same tree as c81
c83 same tree as c81
c84 only one left as of 2021 street view. Have to presume planted, as out of range and no seed source, and close to a car park so an easy spot for 'guerilla gardening'.
c85 collected cone; no to 'Recent evidence of an organism'
c86 planted in a cage
c87 is Pinus elliottii - needles too short and slender for P. palustris.
c88 agree with @jimbean Pinus elliottii (likely var. densa); as originator has opted out of community ID his ID can't be changed, so put X for 'Evidence of organism' :-)
c89 ditto to c88 as Pinus elliottii var. densa

And Pinus lambertiana:

c90 is Araucaria heterophylla, cultivated X
c91 same tree as c90
c92 is Pinus strobus, cultivated X
c93 is Pinus strobus (local native, probably wild)
c94 is Picea abies, planted in garden (see street view)

Many thanks! Revisiting a couple of Picea rubens from earlier:

r1 in Japan: it does not fit any Japanese native Picea; my best guess is cultivated Picea abies; it fits OK on foliage, and is generally the most widely cultivated spruce globally. Red X.
r54 since the observer has not corrected the lat/long transposition, could you tag red X for 'Location is accurate' with a note to @vilseskog that it can be retagged if the details are corrected!

And a couple of new Picea rubens:

r55 is cultivated Picea abies; needles too long for P. rubens.

Some more misidentified Pinus lambertiana:

Pl1 location is wrong; photo shows montane old-growth forest, map shows suburban housing.
Pl2 location is wrong; photo shows montane forest, map shows suburban housing & farmland.
Pl3 identity is correct, but location is wrong; photo shows a collected cone indoors, location is urban.
Pl4 identity is correct, but location is wrong; photo shows a collected cone indoors, location is urban.
Pl5 identity is correct, but location is wrong, altitude much too low.
Pl6 is Pinus sabiniana - long needles in 3s, smooth bark.

Pl10 is Pinus canariensis, cultivated (very popular Calif coast ornamental tree) - very long needles in 3s, woody cone.
Pl11 is Cedrus deodara, cultivated - short needles in clusters.
Pl12 identity is correct, but is cultivated: bonsai wire wrapped round stems for shape training.
Pl13 is Picea breweriana, cultivated in Tilden Regional Parks Botanic Garden.
Pl14 is Pinus radiata (cultivated) in photo #1, Sequoia sempervirens (probably cultivated) in photo #2.
Pl15 is Pinus halepensis (probably naturalised; invasive in Calif) - short needles in 2s.

Pl23 is Pinus canariensis, cultivated (very popular Calif coast ornamental tree) - squirrel-stripped cone.
Pl24 is Pinus canariensis, cultivated (very popular Calif coast ornamental tree) - cone; tree verified from street view.
Pl25 is Pseudotsuga macrocarpa (wild); similar crown form but foliage very different.
Pl26 is Pinus coulteri (wild); distinctive crown form.
Pl27 identity is correct, but agree with @grmorrison, safe to say cultivated; no mature trees nearby.
Pl28 identity is correct, but location is dubious: 10 km away from all the other records, and 300-500 m lower altitude.

And a few Pseudotsuga macrocarpa, please:

BDF1 is Larix decidua, cultivated.
BDF2 is Pseudotsuga menziesii, cultivated.
BDF3 is Pseudotsuga menziesii, collected cone indoors, location wrong, no sign of source tree on street view.
BDF4 is Picea abies, cultivated (obvious forestry plantation on satellite view).
BDF5 is a Pinus species, squirrel-stripped cone; most likely Pinus coulteri, as several present locally on street view.
BDF6 is correct, but as noted, washed down by river; thus 'Recent evidence of an organism' needs to be red X.

On b68, if you could reply: Muchas gracias!
On CIP29 I fear you forgot to give it a red X for planted!
One other response, CIP33, if you could copy this reply, please: @albertocapuano - grazie! Yes, a tree that has uniquely evolved immunity to volcanic eruptions :-). I had checked the area on satellite and street views; the area is a Riserva Naturale, where it is very unlikely anyone would plant Pinus canariensis, but it is immediately adjacent to the Tivoli Gardens & Parco Villa Gregoriana, where many exotic trees are cultivated, and would shed seeds across the road into the Riserva. The dead pines in the photos are all Pinus pinea, also likely self-seeded from the Tivoli Gardens. On satellite view, the young pines on the Riserva are randomly scattered, and have very much the appearance of natural seeding, not planting. Pinus canariensis is also well documented for self-seeding capacity in Mediterranean climates (mainland Spain, southern France, California, South Africa, etc.). So I am very confident this is self-sown, and not a planted tree.

Pps7 - Pinus sp., but not P. pseudostrobus; whatever it is, definitely cultivated ('European Garden') so red X
Pps8 - cultivated (SF Botanical Garden).
Pps9 - Pinus canariensis, highly likely cultivated (dense urban area, and a mature tree probably too old to be self-sown).
Pps10 - Pinus canariensis, cultivated (obvious on street view!).
Pps11 - Pinus canariensis, young trees, very good candidate for self-sown, invasive in natural grassland, so green tick for wild this time.

Hallo Rudolphous, Ik vrees dat deze plant https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:20210731_Hortus_botanicus_Leiden_-_Unidentified_Solanoideae.jpg geen wolfskers is, maar gewoon een zwarte tomaat. Bekijk eens goed de stengel en de bladeren. Ook zijn de vruchten bij de wolfskers niet is trossen gegroepeerd. JulieBingen (talk) 12:58, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dit was in de systeemtuin van Hortus Botanicus Leiden. Ik denk inderdaad dat ik twee planten (wolfkers en tomaat) door elkaar heb gehaald omdat deze dicht bij elkaar stonden omdat dit ook dezelfde orde is. Ik heb een verwijziging naar iNaturalist toegevoegd, daar een aantal mensen gepinged en op commons een aantal wijzingen doorgevoerd. Zodra ik meer zekerheid heb over de soort zal ik nog een paar wijzigingen doen. Hartelijk dank voor de melding. Rudolphous (talk) 13:19, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

d24 - like @saramykknen says, bark alone is asking a bit much; however, the tree is visible on street view (just!) and confirms the ID as Pinus cembra . . . and also shows it is cultivated in a garden, so red X.
d24 - correct ID, but again, a mature cultivated tree.
d25 - correct ID; a young cultivated tree planted in a lawn.
d26 - an interesting one: correct ID; an old tree outside the species' native range so may be planted, but I can't prove it!
d27 - Pinus nigra, cultivated.
d28 - Pinus nigra, likely cultivated but not definitely so (@chimu counted the needles right, but got the wrong deduction; P. cembra is 5s).
d29 - Pinus sect. Quinquefoliae (White Pines) but not P. cembra (needles too long and slender); could be in a plantation but more likely self-sown from in a garden in Verbania.

Super, thanks! And now on to some Pinus pinea...

d55 - Cedrus deodara, cultivated.
d56 - a Picea abies cultivar, cultivated.
d57 - correct, but cultivated.
d58 - correct, but cultivated.
d59 - Pinus nigra, cultivated (confirmed from street view).
d60 - Pinus halepensis, cultivated (confirmed from street view).
d61 - Flowering plants. No pines visible in the photo. Photo also does not match mapped urban location.
d62 - Pinus taeda (local native); cone too slender for P. pinea, and spines on cone scales.
d63 - Flowering plants. No pines visible in the photo. Photo also does not match mapped urban location.
d64 - A juniper, very likely Juniperus virginiana; cultivated.

d65: 7 observations of the same tree:
- d65a - Pinus halepensis, old (100+ years) cultivated tree (needles too short and slender, and bark on branchlets too smooth, for P. pinea). Planted (likely by St. Edwards University) long before nature reserve established.
- d65b - ditto
- d65c - ditto
- d65d - ditto
- d65e - ditto
- d65f - ditto
- d65g - ditto

d66 - Pinus halepensis, cultivated.
d67 - correct, but cultivated: @victry please remember 'planted' = 'organism is NOT wild'!
d68 - Juniperus spp., and flowering plants. No pines visible in the photo.
d69 - Pinus brutia ssp. eldarica, cultivated.
d70 - Pinus brutia ssp. eldarica, cultivated.
d71 - Pinus brutia ssp. eldarica, cultivated.
d72 - Pinus brutia ssp. eldarica, cultivated.
d73 - Pinus brutia ssp. eldarica, cultivated.
d74 - Pinus halepensis, cultivated.
d75 - Pinus elliottii, invasive self-sown from mature trees nearby (e.g. some visible on street view to the southwest).
d76 - correct; seedling, growing among numerous old Pinus pinea cones, so likely self-sown from nearby mature planted tree.
d77 - Pinus douglasiana (local native)
d78 - Pinus sp., not P. pinea (small cones visible on street view); cultivated.
d79 - Flowering plants. A deciduous tree, not a pine (leafless in winter on street view!).

Many thanks! Couple of red Xs missing, from d58 and d80, and a few that I missed or are new, please:

d100 - Casuarinaceae (sp.), cultivated.
d101 - Pinus patula, cultivated.
d101 - Pinus taeda, note spines scales and needles in 3s; cultivated at Arkansas State University.
d102 - Pinus halepensis. I don't doubt that P. pinea can be invasive in South Africa, but these are (a) close to mature P. halepensis, and (b) look like it, with slender shoots and leaves. Both species show prolonged retention of glaucous single juvenile leaves, so that doesn't distinguish. I also checked on street view, and while views are limited, I couldn't see any definite P. pinea nearby, but lots of P. halepensis, most of them coning profusely.
d103 - Pinus pinaster; likely invasive.

A response for d67, please: @ victry - thanks! Unfortunately, iNaturalist's default settings are for ticked as wild. If something isn't wild, you have to put an X for 'Organism is wild' proactively, and it is very easy to overlook this. It's a big problem!

A response for d102, please: @ tonyrebelo - I fear I was too brief, so what I said wasn't fully clear and you misunderstood what I said; more clearly, it should read "these saplings are (a) growing close to several mature P. halepensis, and (b) look like P. halepensis saplings, with slender shoots and leaves..."

Another for Oceanf:

O9 - @ oceanf the distortion is caused by Aster Yellows Phytoplasma (Phytoplasma asteris): worth duplicating the observation and adding it to that, too, as it is much rarer than Erigeron canadensis! -

Template:According to Exif data edits breaking template syntax

Hello, could you have a look at the code that made edits like this one? In that case the bot's insertion is at the wrong bracket level and causes the displayed error. A few more cases show up in Category:Pages using Complex date template with incorrect parameter. I'm writing just in case the code might still be in use(?) to avoid the errors in the future.

And correct identity, self-sown invasive:

e19 - oldest trees likely planted, but multiple younger self-sown trees (including e20 next below)
e20 - germinating seed
e21 - nobody would be foolish enough to plant it there (!!), so self-sown. From satellite view, there are mature trees present in the cemetery across the road for a seed source.

3 new please:

e23 - Pinus montezumae is correct, but as it is planted, @ asabspade please remember to add a red X at 'Organism is wild', otherwise iNat defaults to calling it wild.

Done and maybe you want to write something on d104 Rudolphous (talk) 06:49, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! For d104:

@ johnallcock Agree it is not identifiable. But a bit of history on why I added Eurasian Collared Dove: I found this observation while looking to see if there were any new Burmese Collared Dove photos with a Wiki Commons-compatible license. This record showed up as Burmese Collared Dove, _despite_ the two subsequent 'Family Columbidae' determinations. What was important to me was to get it thrown out of the mapped Burmese Collared Dove search results (as an obvious inaccurate record), and the only way to do that, was to give it a species-level determination, as generic or familial determinations would not shift it; it would remain at the finest-level distinction given, however implausible that might be. I selected Eurasian Collared Dove as the species' closest relative in the near area, without realising its distribution within Hong Kong was so finely tuned (the same does not apply in UK or Europe: a few km is well within normal dispersal range). I'd be perfectly happy to switch to Spotted Dove if that fits better, just so long as there is at least one different _species-level_ determination to stop it reverting to the original implausible species-level determination of Burmese Collared Dove.

Maybe you want to give an answer on e77 ? Rudolphous (talk) 20:53, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks! Yes, for @albertocapuano, the very smooth bark on the stems, combined with the stiff, upcurved leaves and the size and shape of the cones; no other pine shows this. Pinus halepensis can have similarly smooth bark, but has very different foliage character, and persistent, usually serotinous cones.

Looking through the updated P. heldreichii observations list, two I missed before:

e78 - verify
e79 - verify

Thanks! - MPF (talk) 21:05, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And for @albertocapuano's new question: obviously it is impossible to be 100% certain, but the balance of probability very strongly favours planted. In its first few years, Pinus heldreichii is a very poor competitor with fast-growing lowland vegetation, so its establishment without human aid requires highly specialised conditions. This can be seen in this example where bare sand is present for multiple years (see street view historical footage), but not in this case, where it is growing in a field boundary mixed with dense grasses, Opuntia, Ficus carica, etc. Also, the nearest potential native seed source is much further away in this case. And there is the example of other Pinus species (P. halepensis, P. pinea) planted by local farmers in similar situations nearby. Hope this helps! - MPF (talk) 21:51, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Done Rudolphous (talk) 17:04, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Three Pinus nigra misidentified as P. heldreichii:

e111 - is Pinus nigra from its vertically fissured and plated bark pattern. @greek_cicada_project unfortunately it is not as simple as "Pinus heldreichii ... replaces Pinus nigra above 1200 m ASL", there is a large overlap between about 1000–1500 m (exceptionally 1800 m) where both can occur and they need to be identified individually.
e112 - is Pinus nigra from its rough shoots.
e113 - is Pinus nigra. A very tough one to decide due to the low image quality, but the immature cones, where visible against a foliage backdrop (not silhouetted aginst the sky), are green (as in P. nigra), not dark blue (as in P. hedreichii). Unfortunately the bark texture is not accurately determinable!

And the reverse:

e114 is P. heldreichii, classic bark pattern and long needle retention.
e115 is P. heldreichii, typical cones and foliage.
e116 is P. heldreichii, typical bark, cones and foliage.

Thanks! Decided to tackle those last 3 "Pinus peuce", because on closer looking, 2 of them definitely aren't!:

e117 - Pinus sylvestris from the orange-brown bark on the upper branches (grey in P. peuce), crown shape, and short needles.
e118 - Pinus sylvestris from the orange-brown bark on the upper branches (grey in P. peuce), crown shape, and short needles.
e119 - Pinus sp., unidentifiable. Lack of any visible long pendulous cones suspicious for P. peuce; impossible to exclude e.g. P. nigra without much better photos.

And, back to Pinus pinea:

e120 - Magnoliophyta (sp.). A broadleaf shrub, definitely not a pine; sorry, not sure what it is though!
e121 - identity is correct; an even-aged plantation, not wild, though. X.
e122 - Pinus halepensis, from bark, finely twiggy crowns, and small cones. Mature trees likely planted, but at least one younger tree (foregrounf half-left) could easily be self-sown.
e123 - Pinus halepensis, from bark, finely twiggy crowns, and small cones. Mature planted tree in public park, X.
e124 - identity is correct; in an even-aged mixed-species plantation (from street view, mostly Pinus halepensis, some P. pinea and some Cupressus sp.), no evidence of regeneration, so X.
e125 - identity is correct; old planted ornamental tree, X.
e126 - identity is correct; group of 4 old symmetrically planted trees at 'Miradouro Pico dos Barcelos'; 5th younger tree (left edge of photo) looks very out of place in planting scheme, so likely from self-sown seed from the original 4 (thus, green tick for wild). Marker needs moving 200 m ESE (checked from street view photos).
e127 - identity is correct; group of planted trees by cultivated ground (old pine nut orchard?).
e128 - identity is correct; group of planted trees by cultivated ground (old pine nut orchard?).

f23 - Abies procera is correct; planted in urban public park X.
f24 - Abies procera is correct; @steinm very likely self-sown: this species regenerates readily in Denmark's climate, and there are mature planted trees nearby ([1]) for a seed source.

Thanks! - MPF (talk) 23:29, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A return to e138, for @latacat: Thanks! It is subsp. chihuahuana because the needles are in 3s; in subsp. leiophylla the needles are mostly in 5s. Also, the location, at the northern end of the species' range: only subsp. chihuahuana occurs in USA and northern Mexico, while subsp. leiophylla is at the southern end, well south in central/southern Mexico. Hope this helps! MPF (talk) 00:37, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Today's set, please!

f25 - definitely a Pinus strobus cone; map location places it in a garden, so presume planted, not wild. X.
f26 - certainly fits Pinus strobus rather than any local native white pine. Needs more context, though - was it in a wild area, or in someone's garden? Was it planted, or self-sown from a planted tree? @dysm making the record obscured doesn't help, can you show the exact location, please!
f27 - Pinus peuce, broad-based cone with no narrow reflexed basal scales. Invasive species in Finland.
f28 - probably Pinus peuce, but other white pines possible; not Pinus strobus, the glaucous stomatal bands too bright white for that. Self-sown seedling; can the parent tree be located nearby for photos of the cones?
f29 - Pinus strobus, mature planted trees (presumably experimental forestry) and also self-sown saplings from them, so invasive.

Son of iNat

Some more from iNat, please!

g1 - Eurasian, Red, and Tropical Pines (Section Pinus). Definitely an east Asian species, not a Mexican import; either P. tabuliformis or P. densiflora, not distinguishable from these photos.
g2 - Pinus roxburghii; thick, woody cone scales; cultivated X.
g3 - Pinus sylvestris; local native.
g4 - Pinus nigra; needles in 2s not 3s to 5s, cone typical P. nigra. Planted in lawn, X.
g5 - Pinus subgenus Pinus. Not identifiable at this age. Pine seeds can easily blow long distances (several hundred metres), there is no guarantee it is from the tree it was below; also, as pines are strongly outcrossing, a sole specimen of a species will produce few if any viable seed unless there are close relatives it can hybridise with. A look on street view reveals numerous specimens of Pinus radiata and Pinus nigra within seeding range; either of these is a much higher likelihood of being the parent of this seedling.
g6 - Pinus durangensis; cone fits this better.
g7 - Pinus cooperi; immature cones green not purple; also local native on Cerro Mohinora, which P. hartwegii is not.
g8 - Pinus cooperi; immature cones green not purple; also local native on Cerro Mohinora / Guadalupe y Calvo, which P. hartwegii is not.
g9 - Pinus cooperi; local native in Guadalupe y Calvo area, which P. hartwegii is not.

Done. Different question, do you know what species this is? Rudolphous (talk) 07:35, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Looks like g4 got missed :-) also something gone wrong with Cerro Mohinora and Guadalupe y Calvo on g8 and g9 (hit by an auto-translator that didn't recognise they were place names?). Redpolls are tricky as they intergrade so much (likely that all 3 will be lumped back into one species eventually!), but my reaction to this bird would be Acanthis flammea rather than A. cabaret, because of the overall pale appearance, and in particular the white, not buffy, greater covert wingbar. Compare File:Acanthis cabaret 4 East Chevington.jpg (and also ##1-3 and 5 in the same set). Hope this helps! - MPF (talk) 14:39, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Others:

g11 - Pinus wallichiana; cones with downcurved scale apex, not reflexed; cultivated X.
g12 - agree Pinus monticola from the cone.
g13 - comment: what white pines have been planted locally that it could seed from? On these photos, could as easily be Pinus peuce as P. monticola; will need to wait for cones to identify.

Excellent, thanks! Some new, please:

g35 - Pinus pumila; agree with @oleg_kosterin definitely this from cone structure. Impossible to say whether wild or cultivated, given the very large location uncertainty.
g36 - white pines (Pinus sect. Quinquefoliae), but not P. sibirica as shoots slender and glabrous or at most finely pubescent, not densely pubescent. Suburban site, so likely cultivated X.
g37 - white pines (Pinus sect. Quinquefoliae), but not P. sibirica as shoots slender and glabrous or at most finely pubescent, not densely pubescent. In a garden, so likely cultivated X.
g38 - white pines (Pinus sect. Quinquefoliae), most likely either Pinus cembra or Pinus peuce, both of which are more abundant as seed sources in Sweden. Pinus sibirica would not be able to colonise cross the Gulf of Bothnia (Bottniska viken) from Finland. From street view, there are two white pines about 30-50 m WSW of this seedling; they could well be the seed source, and should be checked for identity.
g39, g40, g41 - comment: more likely to be Pinus cembra; this species has a long history of cultivation in Sweden, while Pinus sibirica does not (unlike Finland, where it was widely planted when Finland was under Russian occupation). The only reliable distinction is to count the resin canals in the needles (2 in P. cembra, 3 in P. sibirica).
g42 - confirm (more likely than Pinus cembra given Lithuania's history of Russian occupation); a planted tree about 50 years old X.

Last, a return to g5: a harsh response, given that the postulated parent tree (observation 51268762 ) is itself of uncertain identity, let alone no mention of other potential source species (a botanic garden with a dedicated pinetum: how many other pine species are in it? 20? 30? 50? I couldn't find any published species stock list). Am I right that you are getting Pinus hartwegii formally listed in NZ as an invasive species, and having all existing specimens removed, on the basis of a single seedling that might (or might not) be from a tree that might (or might not) actually be Pinus hartwegii? As an aside, has anyone kept any cones from the old tree? They would help to identify it.

Thanks! - MPF (talk) 23:26, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Addenum: just noticed e131 has some follow-up; could you reply to add: "@croxvols @andrewtree with a ~30 cm cone, this is definitely Pinus wallichiana, which is frequently planted as an ornamental tree in Britain. Pinus strobus can be excluded as its cones are only 8-16 (exceptionally 17) cm long. Only two other white pines in UK cultivation can have 30 cm cones (P. ayacahuite, P. lambertiana), and both are much rarer, and have different cone scale shapes. Apologies for the delayed reply!" - MPF (talk) 23:52, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also e69; for @okrimub and @albertocapuano - "this is a completely typical Pinus nigra cone; as you correctly showed with links before, the cone scale stems are different colours. There is nothing here to indicate a hybrid; additionally, while the hybrid “Pinus x nigradermis” has been claimed, it has never been verified, there is no genetic evidence for hybrids between these two species."

Thanks! To 39 & 40: Stort tack! I had not seen this information before, the information I had was from further south in Scandinavia where there is only P. cembra cited. It will still be interesting to see the resin canal counts, but this makes me happy with P. sibirica after all.

g47 - Pinus ponderosa; cones near-symmetrical, and soon falling, not long-persistent on the branches. Planted trees in the photo, but scattered small young plants evident close by on satellite view, so also invasive.
g48 - Pinus contorta; short green leaves in 2s. Invasive.
g49 - Pinus elliottii; narrow cylindrical symmetrical cone with thin scales. Evidently a drifted tideline cone; no pines nearby on street view. An urban harbour, so most likely cultivated origin.

g84 - verify; cone in photo 3 is diagnostic, seedling is being invasive, so yes, it should be added to the "NZ Wilding Conifers" list. Widely invasive in other warm temperate areas, notably southern China, Brazil.
g85 - verify, but is seeds bought in a shop; X for 'Recent evidence of an organism' I guess.
g86 - Picea glauca; note pulvini on shoot. One of the more commonly planted conifers in Greenland. Planted next to a house, X.
g87 - Picea x lutzii, planted in shelterbelt, X. The most important forestry species in Iceland.
g88 - Picea x lutzii, planted in shelterbelt, X. The most important forestry species in Iceland.
g89 - Picea x lutzii; note the sharp needles on pulvini (little 'peg' at the base of each needle). Invasive seedling.
g90 - Picea x lutzii, planted in shelterbelt, X. The most important forestry species in Iceland.

Space station photographs

Hello Rudolphous! I was looking into the “ISS photographs taken by date” and I was wondering: would it be possible to use your bot to make similar categories for the Skylab and Mir space stations? And for a “test drive” before the future Artemis program, it could be interesting to see if the same thing could be made for the Apollo astronauts photographs taken at Moon surface (or for any crewed mission that didn't go to any space station at all). Thanks, Erick Soares3 (talk) 13:40, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Technically I can do that but not sure if there is consensus for this and a clear category to work on. For the ISS pictures I did, since they were already in the 'photographs taken on xx-yy-zz' categories and so numerous that they were hiding other pictures Rudolphous (talk) 17:30, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This 96,000 Public Domain Image Category

Dear Admin Rudolphous,

I am only one person and I have a busy life. There is no way I can review 96,000 images. My question simply is if the flickr bot stated the image on the flickrlink was licesned as PD-Mark at upload, is the image safe to pass or not...assuming the source flickr account has no issues with copyright violations.

For example: User:Ser Amantio di Nicolao uploaded Two images below but these images are now deleted at the flickrlink. However this and this says the images were PD-Mark at upload.

File:Jasper Blom Quartet 14 december 2011 Schuttershof Middelburg - Jasper Blom (50890659176).jpg

Secondly, you uploaded File:Kea. Nestor notabilis. (50767455993).jpg but the image was actually deleted at the source. I passed it and placed a message at the image talkpage saying the image was PDMark at upload. Did I have to do this, did I do something wrong or should I have just passed the image with no comment? Typing a comment takes time.

My basic question is are the 96,000 images in the above category safe for Commons to use if there are no copyright violation issues? If it is, than there is no need for me to type in {{PD-author-FlickrPDM}} {{Flickrreview}} to trigger a new review as I did in the images below: 1 or 2 , etc. Thank You, --Leoboudv (talk) 01:12, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: But, as an Admin you can order a bot to tag these 96,000+ images with {{PD-author-FlickrPDM}} {{Flickrreview}} It must be {{PD-author-FlickrPDM}} or the flickrbot will Not pass the image. The Category should be reduced by 80 to 90%. As for the images that are deleted at the flickr source, I have no idea what is the solution with this problem. Best, --Leoboudv (talk) 02:09, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please leave a redirect

Hello Rudolphous. I hope you are well and it is good to see that you are still active. Please could I ask a favour? If you rename an image due to a change of identification, please could you leave a redirect from the old name to the new one? That would make it much easier for me to follow what is happening, and I think that the same thing applies for other users who may have a record of the image under its old name.

Thanks! Here's my reply:

Hi @socogonzalez (and also @pinidae) - gracias! An interesting suggestion, but (a) this observation matches Pinus cooperi material I have studied from Cerro Mohinora, and (b) it also matches published descriptions of Pinus cooperi in both cone and foliage (leaves 5-12 cm!). It is also geographically remote from all other locations with Pinus hartwegii. The original description of Pinus hartwegii cites the leaves as over 15 cm long, too long for this observation, and too long for Pinus cooperi. The dark purple immature cones of trees currently identified as P. hartwegii is fully compatible with the protologe description of grey-brown mature cones, as in nature the purple rapidly weathers and fades to grey-brown after maturity and opening (the cones only stay dark purple in herbaria when protected from rain and sun!). Of Pinus rudis, this is an undefinable taxon, as its origin is unknown (just "Mexico"); it is best considered as a nomen ambiguum.

Hoi Rudolphous, had jij niet een bot die dit soort bewerkingen automatisch kan doen? Ben de data in structured data en Wikidata aan het toevoegen zodat we voor de Rijksmonumenten kunnen zien wanneer ze genomen zijn, zie https://w.wiki/AGbB Multichill (talk) 16:47, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo Multichill, ik heb twee scripts eentje kan op basis van foto informatie een photographs taken on toevoegen en de andere kan photographs taken on omzetten naar een taken on template mits deze datum gelijk is. De inhoud van taken on moet volgens mij zijn EEJJ-MM-DD of EEJJ-MM-DD UU:MM. De scripts draai ik op selectieve setjes foto's omdat al vrij snel allerlei verkeerdere conclusies getrokken kunnen worden. Rudolphous (talk) 04:52, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

iNat & GBIF

Hi @Rudolphous, thank you for your great work! I want to talk to you about this idea: Depending on the license, peer reviewed media from iNat will be imported to GBIF. From a long time perspective, maybe GBIF will be the persistent archive. Is it possible to write a script for media from iNat in Commons which reads the GBIF-Link from iNat and adds the GBIF-template in Commons? Best regards, ChristianSW (talk) 05:42, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting idea, will look into it. 07:04, 19 June 2024 (UTC) Rudolphous (talk) 07:04, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Rudolphous I just saw that the iNaturalistReviewBot adds the GBIF template within the review process. So we only need a script/bot which checks media from iNat missing the GBIF template. ChristianSW (talk) 09:24, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another for inat, please!

Hi Rudolphous - first for a while, please!

h64 - agree with Cupressus ("Hesperocyparis") forbesii; the rounded cones with swollen scales, and slender shoots, are very typical for that, and quite different to C. stephensonii. I have seen both species in the wild.

Thanks! - MPF (talk) 20:18, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done Rudolphous (talk) 04:53, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! And:

h65 - American Goldfinch Spinus tristis; note pinkish-yellow bill, white undertail coverts, white extending to tail tip.

Thanks! A few geese, please:

h66 - Anser albifrons, but not ssp. flavirostris; bill pink (not orange), plumage light grey-brown (not dark), tail tip broadly white (not narrow white).
h67 - identity correct, but captive pinioned (flightless) bird; red X
h68 - identity correct, but captive pinioned (flightless) birds; red X
h69 - identity correct, but captive pinioned (flightless) bird; red X
h70 - identity correct, but captive pinioned (flightless) bird; red X
h71 - Anser erythropus (note yellow eye ring, and tiny size), but captive pinioned (flightless) bird; red X
h72 - Anser erythropus (note yellow eye ring, and tiny size), but captive pinioned (flightless) birds with plastic leg rings; red X
h73 - hybrids of Anser albifrons and Branta canadensis (note dark neck and whitish cheek patch); captive origin, red X

Thanks a lot for these great id's. Think in total you already made 1000 corrections of research grade obsevations on inaturalist. Rudolphous (talk) 06:26, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!! Just one more for today, please:

h74 - Lamium galeobdolon. This is the cultivar 'Herman's Pride', unassigned to subspecies. Note the silvered leaves; ssp. flavidum has plain green leaves. As a cultivar, red X.

Just two tonight, please:

h75 - Calidris alpina hudsonia. Not C. a. arctica, which has very restricted black on the belly compared with this bird, and a paler mantle. By far the most likely at this location is C. a. hudsonia.
h76 - Calidris ferruginea. Both the bill and upper leg (tibia) are too long for Dunlin, but fit Curlew Sandpiper well. Note also Dunlin is very rare this far south, whereas Curlew Sandpiper regularly winters in this region.

Thanks! - MPF (talk) 22:42, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Four more today, please!

h74 - verify

And Pinus montezumae revisited, please:

h82 - Pinus pinaster; needles in pairs not 5s, cone glossy red-brown. Naturalised in this area.
h83 - verify; but obvious planted tree in botanical collection, red X.
h84 - photo too bad to identify, but obvious planted tree in botanical garden, red X.
h85 - verify as to identity; needs clarification if these are cultivated trees in a plantation, or naturalised.
h86 - verify as to identity; needs clarification if these are cultivated trees in a plantation, or naturalised.
h87 - verify as to identity; needs clarification if these are cultivated trees in a plantation, or naturalised.
h88 - photo too bad to identify, but not P. montezumae as bark too smooth. Planted tree in an urban area, red X.
h89 - Pinus douglasiana (per iNaturalist taxonomy); small cone with distinct peduncle, also out of range (too far west) for P. montezumae.

"Opdracht Nierstratz"

Rudolphous, op deze commons circuleren ongeveer 80 foto's die door Anefo gemaakt zijn in het kader van "Opdracht Nierstratz". Ze zijn zo te zien in allerlei steden gemaakt. Kan jij voor die groep een aparte categorie maken en ze er middels een bot inzetten. Ik kwam een aantal tegen in de Categorie:Niersstraat, Amsterdam, maar die is veel eerder gebouwd. Nierstratz was kennelijk een aannemersbedrijf dat in 1965 druk bezig was. Ik herkende op een van de foto's wel een gebouw aan de De Ruijterkade (brandweerkazerne met havengebouw op de achtergrond), maar bij de meeste foto's zal de plek onduidelijk blijven?bvd,Ceescamel (talk) 12:40, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hi! what do you mean by obscured location? File:Lachnanthes caroliniana 265738831.jpg has coords. is it still considered obscured? RZuo (talk) 11:55, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Geoprivace of this observation is obscured. In this case the precision of the gps is ~29,2 km. Rudolphous (talk) 15:07, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
