Revision needed edit

The article was constructed before Juniperus turbinata was split off from Juniperus phoenicea, and so needs to be thoroughly revised. In particular, as now defined, Juniperus phoenicea is only found in France, Portugal and Spain. Most populations previously treated as J. phoenicea are now J. turbinata.

@Peter coxhead: J. canariensis has been created. I support moving the current Juniperus phoenicea page to Juniperus phoenicea (species complex) (or Juniperus grex phoenicea as suggested by Sánchez-Gómez 2018^[1]) since it would be useful as an aggregate and since recent studies don't exclude further splitting of J. turbinata. --Ihaveacatonmydesk (talk) 10:39, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

EDIT: of course a new article would have to be created for J. phoenicea as currently defined.

@Ihaveacatonmydesk: "grex" is almost always only used, at least in English texts, for orchids. Using "(species complex)" is fine by me. Peter coxhead (talk) 20:53, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
