Hi Folks,
Can anyone help out with the identity of the plants in the photos at: Wildlifeonline - Unidentified
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Marc. |

Can't be too sure of these - prefer to deal with flowers! First two, I think, are a Viburnum - do they have large panicles of flowers? The third one is certainly a Lonicera (I forget the species name but it may come to me later). The fourth one is probably a Cotoneaster (*not* C. horizontalis). Quote: |

!, 2 +4 are Cotoneaster. The 1st 2 are probably C.bullatus or C.rehderi, the former has leaves 3.5-7cm + latter 5-15cm (according to Stace) but can't get this info from photos, but both have bullate upper leaf surface as shown. Not sure about 4th species, but as Paul says it's not C.horizontalis. About 100 species of Cotoneaster have now been found naturalised in the wild due to the delicacy of the fruits to birds + what happens at the other end!
3 is a Lonicera, possibly a form of native L. periclymenum as fruits are terminal. C. japonica which is commonly seen has flowers/fruits in axils. |

Hi Paul, Mrs. Finch & aeshna5,
Thanks very much for the replies. The photos were sent to me by my folks, hoping someone would be able to ID the plants in their garden; I know they'll be pleased to know the genus (even if the species remains uncertain).
Paul: Unfortunately there are no flowers on there at the moment, but I'll pass on your note in case they spot some later in the year (or next year).
Cheers,
Marc. |

Hi Marc,
D. Cotoneaster
E. Lactarius sp. a Milk Cap. You need to smell it and check out the white latex when you
tear the cap. How much is there, what colour is it. Also do a tongue-tip test
F The Blusher Amanita rubescens
G Psathyrella hydrophila. The single purple one is the Amethyst Deceiver Laccaria amethystea.
All the best,
Adam Quote:
