- @Kevmin: I was going to promote ALT2, but I couldn't find a citation for the notion that the mixture of plants is "noted" – could you point me in the right direction? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 23:12, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
- Per West et al. (2020)
Okanagan Highlands floras are broadly similar in floristic composition, comprised of a high diversity of plant genera typical of modern temperate deciduous and subtropical evergreen forests (DeVore and Pigg, 2010; Smith et al., 2012; Gushulak et al., 2016; Lowe et al., 2018).

- Then how about:
- ALT2a: ... that the Paleoflora of the Eocene Okanagan Highlands (fossil pictured) has a noted mixture of both temperate and subtropical plants?
- since that's what the reference actually says? -- RoySmith (talk) 14:18, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- Onegreatjoke can you approve ALT2a? -- RoySmith (talk) 16:24, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
