Synopsis
Excerpt from Southern California Academy of Sciences, Vol. 8: Table of Contents and Index, 1909
The year 1908 has added but few new records for our county, and some of these are at present only casuals. It is always of interest to record the first appearance of what may seem but an unimportant introduction, as experience has shown that it is not always possible to foresee the ulti mate result thereof.
Vaccaria Vaccaria Britton. Along a ditch on Lima street Sierra Madre, a few plants. This is the troublesome cockle of the wheat fields in the Middle West, and I think this is its first reported appearance in California.
