Richard Spellenberg, Professor Emeritus, New Mexico State University, and Author of “The Sunflower Family: A Guide to the Family Asteraceae in the Contiguous United States.” Spellenberg will discuss what makes this family so difficult to grasp, the structure of the sunflower head, features used in identification, and the value in learning taxonomic tribes in the family. Examples will be from New Mexico species.
