• 03:3003:30, 19 July 2020 diff hist +44‎ Tribulus terrestris ‎ The article inaccurately suggested that Tribulus terrestris is a native species in North America and Australia.

23 June 2020

• 16:5516:55, 23 June 2020 diff hist +9‎ Fallopia convolvulus ‎ "Arable plant" is not a well-known or clearly defined term, and has no wikipedia page. It appears to be specifically English; as a professional botanist in the United States I am familiar with "arable land" but have never before heard of "arable plants".

4 May 2020

• 20:2220:22, 4 May 2020 diff hist −8‎ m Japanese flying squid ‎ The previous wording implied that statoliths are growth rings, rather than the things in which growth rings can be observed.

• 04:0104:01, 6 April 2017 diff hist −1‎ m Echinocactus horizonthalonius ‎ A break between the introduction of var. nicholii gave the impression that the statement about listing under the endangered species act referred to the species as a whole, rather than only to var. nicholii. I have removed that break.

• 22:2722:27, 30 September 2012 diff hist +39‎ Ericameria ‎ Added a "citation needed" - does anyone really refer to these as "sagebrush"? I've not encountered that... sagebrush is Artemisia. Maybe this usage is followed in some circles, but seems obscure enough to need a cite...

• 22:1822:18, 30 September 2012 diff hist +17‎ m Ericameria ‎ Added turpentine bush among common names (Ericameria laricifolia is the most conspicuous member of the genus in portions of the southwest U.S.) and reordered names by frequency (most Ericameria are "goldenbush").

• 22:3022:30, 5 August 2012 diff hist −92‎ m Poaceae ‎ Removed mentions of Centothecoideae. If we're going with the classification presented in the Catalogue of New World Grasses, this is not a subfamily... and under no classification can a subfamily be included in another subfamily...

• 10:1010:10, 5 August 2012 diff hist −22‎ Ligule ‎ Description of ligules in grasses was incorrect; a ligule is not at the base of a leaf where it attaches to the stem. It is at the base of the blade & apex of the sheath of a leaf; the leaf is attached to the stem at the base of the sheath.
