Sorry for the confusion.   Having undergraduates enter data can lead to problems, both of interpretation
20
and typing.

Hi Jim,
33
34
I have a colleague at the University of Arizona (Brad Boyle) who has been
35
looking at the database from the UNCC herbarium. There are codes given
36
for Leaf, Flower, Fruit, and Root
37
'leaves': A,F,L,I,M,N,U,V,W,Y
38
'flower': A, F, I, J, M, N
39
'fruit': A, H, I, M, O, Q, S
40
'root': A,B,C,E,F,I,M,N,P,Q,R,S,Y
41
42
Do you know where we can find the definitions? Doubtless a few are typos,
43
but we really do not know where to start. If it would help, I could give
44
you a count for each. For example, for leaves M is the most common with
45
39535 records.
46
47
Thanks,
48
Bob
