Evan, Appreciate the detailed study and analysis you are doing, as well as updating here. I am glad that there is a protocol developed so that only a limited amount of rare plant material is collected from the wild. Aad, This year I had the opportunity to visit the Jepson Herbarium. There are specimens there collected centuries ago and preserved so well that, DNA and modern analysis can now be performed on them. Photography at best can only capture the visuals, perhaps the collecting is also done to preserve for future study?
