@Ol_LynchEco @BSBIbotany @wildflower_hour Crepis vesicaria tastes much worse than Crepis biennis
Any reliable hints and tips on the identification of Crepis spp rosettes? Or do I simply have to wait for it to flower and fruit for best results (until I can see if the achenes have a beak etc), provided it doesn't get weeded out! From leaf description, C. vesicaria. @BSBIbotany
Do some organisations view old insect collections like a dying person views photos of their youth & vanished beauty, an unhappy reminder of something forever lost? Is this societal rejection of the knowledge in collections not anti-intellectual indifference, but guilt and regret?
Can it be that some elements of society are giving up on the future of the natural world? Are these collections, as a time machine or a window to past ecosystems, an unhappy reminder for some people of biodiversity that was?
It is not that they don't understand the importance of natural history, sometimes I go to a school to pick up their unwanted insect collection, and they have displays all over the classrooms saying how important insects are... it doesn't make sense. Then I thought of something..
So, this brings me to the irony: educational institutions, including schools, universities and field centres, are getting rid of natural history collections, just at a time when these amazing resources are more relevant and more important than they have ever been before..
& 2. Natural history collections provide a great insight into the world's biodiversity and the best possible tool for understanding it - they are at once a teleporter and a time machine allowing you to 'visit' and study ecosystems all over the world, including vanished ones..
There is a great irony that I am confronted with often in my work @NHM_London : 1. we are in a biodiversity crisis, awareness of the decline in biodiversity is rising, engagement with nature is very high through apps, websites, entertainment, even a GCSE in Natural History..

An unexpected #urbanflora find yesterday with Meadow Saxifrage (Saxifraga granulata) colonising walls in Jesmond Dene, having hopped from a nearby green roof.
Some beautiful bicoloured Broom, Cytisus scoparius, seen on Croxley Common Moor SSSI last Sunday. Stace says that Broom flowers can have dark red or mauve areas, so I hope this is natural variation rather than a horticultural escape. I've seen this colour form on Blackheath too.
Telling Aphanes arvensis (left) from A. australis (right) is all about the teeth at the tip of the calyx (x20). If the teeth are spreading, so the flower looks star-shaped from above, you have arvensis. If the teeth are upright (so the flower is barrel-shaped) that's australis.
