# Description:
#
#   Rene [07 Apr 1999] reports that the stain on the sunflower page looks
#   as if it is the result of spilled ink/pigment, after the green of the
#   leaves had been applied.
#
# Comments:
#
#   The most startling identification, however, was folio 93,
#   which is quite plainly the common sunflower, Helianthus annuus L..
#   Six other botanists have agreed with me on this determination. [1]
