Could you also look at sighting 3367397 and the species image for S. oleraceus sightings? They look more like S. asper. Going by the names and synonyms in lucidcentral Weeds of Australia there has been botanical confusion at times.

Could you provide a link rather than a sighting number please. The system is not user friendly for finding sightings by number. Just click on canberra.naturemapr.org at the top of the sighting and the URL will appear. Then copy. Thanks.

Secret feature: If you type a sighting number into the Quick Search box, it will take you directly to that sighting. But I agree Betty, links are the best..

Sorry Betty, I was switching around among computer, tablets and phone so I didn't copy the full link. You would have found it by going to the species page. Using the full link can lead to confusion because it can show up in comments as the species name - which can change. The good thing out of all this is that we now know another of Aaron's secrets.
