News for iNaturalist Botanists.

There's a webinar on identifying plants on iNaturalist on Thursday at midday NY time. This is free to anyone. If you're go to the UK branch, https://uk.inaturalist.org/home, you can also sign up for a webinar on how to identify Ranunculus on Monday evening.

@botanyone That's midnight my time but I'd welcome help from ranunculus experts! These stone carvings dating from 1638-40 were said in 1959 to be #ranunculus but I''m not sure why? Leaves look quite wrong? What is depicted on the right?

@AquaClaire I'll let you know if I find anything helpful, but I think that might be a case where you have to know the art styles of the period before you can say anything.
