- Opmerking: Bruce Dunstan (2011-11-01) - Eric
I had the same plant at the train station a couple of years ago and people thought it was T. confinis (Verzonden: brom-l@science.uu.nl) - Opmerking: Eric Gouda (2011-11-02) - Bruce, the matter is: how different is T.dudleyi from T.confinis? In the first place I thought it was T.confinis, but with more erect spikes. In Smith & Downs it is difficult to key to T.dudleyi. At first you have to use key IX (plant with ligulate leaves and this is questionable). At point 55 you will come to a dead end, because T.dudleyi has ample primary bracts (not short), but acute leaf apices. If you continue in the last part of the key, you will finely end up at this species. (Verzonden: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
- Opmerking: Peter Tristram (2011-11-02) - Interesting as I also would have immediately thought T. confinis. It sure looks a better match for T. dudleyi though and a more than the more xeric plant that we now know is a better match for T. cajamarcensis. This could be the first good photo of dudleyi!

- Opmerking: Uncle Derek (2011-11-03) - I am fence sitting. T. confinis must be variable if only because of its synonyms. The herbarium specimen of T. dudleyi also makes me wonder (Verzonden: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
