Talk:Custard Apple (Annonaceae), Breadfruit (Moraceae) and Soursop (Annonaceae)

Confusion between species with vernacular name custard apple edit

In this article, someone chose to link this vernacular name custard apple to the species Annona reticulata (whose other vernacular names are ox heart and bullock's heart).

In English, several species bear the vernacular name custard apple (cf Custard apple).

In this case, the "scaly" shape and color of the sculpture let me think that it would rather be another species : Annona squamosa (whose other vernacular names are sugar apple and sweetsop).

Cf. this picture from the French Wikipedia article on this last species.

So I changed the link accordingly.
