David Eickhoff commented on an older version of Adiantum capillus-veneris:
@Alan Weakley: Aloha Alan, Thank you. Years ago, this plant was given to me with the idea that it was A. capillus-veneris, which is rare on O'ahu, Hawaii. I always thought it didn't fit, but she insisted and I am no fern expert. So, I had no reason to doubt her. But revisiting "Hawai'i's Fern and Fern Allies" Daniel D. Palmer, University of Hawai'i Press, 2003, after your comment, I can see some key differences now. Anyway, I believe in correctness and have removed my photos of A. capillus-veneris for the time being. I can be contacted at dweickhoff@google.com or eickhoff@hawaii.edu Again, thank you for drawing this to my attention. Respectfully, David

David Eickhoff commented on "Fiji Fan Palm {Pritchardia Pacifica}":
Hi Drew, This is not Pritchardia pacifica. The flower stalks never exceed the leaf blades and in fact are short. http://www.flickr.com/photos/dweickhoff/8390104809/ This genus can be quite confusing. Your photo does resembles P. kaalae in some ways, but doubt this is it. Likely it is Pritchardia thurstonii or a hybrid Pritchardia. There are other species in this area. Compare P. pacifica with P. thurstonii http://www.flickr.com/photos/dweickhoff/8390100169/ Aloha, Dave

@Leo Shapiro: Yes, I agree with Michael. A bulk "Trust" option would be very helpful & less daunting than one-by-one.

David Eickhoff commented on "Image of Plumbago zeylanica":
Hey Starrs, Don't think this photo is P. zeylanica. Perhaps Plumbago auriculata which is naturalized E. Maui (Keokea, below Kula Hwy). http://botany.si.edu/pacificislandbiodiversity/hawaiianflora/result2.cfm

This should be Trusted as Waltheria indica var. americana. It does not allow me to make the change.
