large numbers of individuals of this taxon were found quite by accident in an area heretofore unknown for this taxon. Some individuals were found growing in the road with tire tracks 'over them'.

remarks here - this specimen shows the same characteristics and should be of the same: this one anyway definitely belongs to section ruderalia, and supposedly the same "felted/reddish" population as that other one. Shot of flower of this one to be
found here.Very common.German name: LwenzahnID: Fischer & al., Exkursionsflora (2008 3rd)

Under a moderately high magnification of 811x, this 2006 scanning electron micrograph (SEM) depicted details of the morphologic surface characteristics of a "dandelion clock", from a Common Dandelion, Taraxacum officinale plant. The "clock" is the filamentous "puffball" of seeds arranged so as to be easily dispersed by the wind, or the breath of a curious child.In this field of view the remnants of a seed attachment is visible as a small nub protruding from a small papule. It is from these nub-like points that the "parachute"-equipped seeds detach, and are blown away, sometime over a distance of miles. Note that this is the second in a series of PHIL images, 8791-8796, in which the magnification is increased, thereby, providing greater and greater morphologic detail of the point of the developing seed attachment.Created: 2006
