  • Per West et al. (2020) Okanagan Highlands floras are broadly similar in floristic composition, comprised of a high diversity of plant genera typical of modern temperate deciduous and subtropical evergreen forests (DeVore and Pigg, 2010; Smith et al., 2012; Gushulak et al., 2016; Lowe et al., 2018).--Kevmin § 15:20, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then how about:
ALT2a: ... that the Paleoflora of the Eocene Okanagan Highlands (fossil pictured) has a noted mixture of both temperate and subtropical plants?
since that's what the reference actually says? -- RoySmith (talk) 14:18, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, that is what I should have written initially for the hook, I didn't catch that I had dropped the sub from subtropical when I wrote out the nomination. My apologies--Kevmin § 14:36, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
