Marine species
[edit]Larkum et al. is an authoritive reference on seagrasses. It is recent. I trust it more than FloraBase, although I would usually use only FloraBase for Australian species (it's easier).

- Any better? The information for L. cylindrocarpa at FloraBase shows the herbarium's records of an inland distribution, summarising it as "marine" seemed misleading. I didn't change marina :-) BTW, Florabase is only good for species in the western third of the continent. cygnis insignis 14:43, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, it's better. I put the source for the marine inside the brackets because after reviewing some literature online I found most sources say the genus is not marine. I think that plus the additional text makes the article much more useful. Micropaleontologists are only interested in the western third of the continent. --69.226.103.13 (talk) 18:09, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
