Talk:Crataegus monogyna

Hybrids

Wrong:

• Crataegus × macrocarpa (C. monogyna × C. laevigata; syn. C. × media)

Right:

• Crataegus × macrocarpa = C. monogyna × C. rhipidophylla
• Crataegus × media = C. laevigata × C. monogyna

Sans doute

As was discussed 11 January 2012 by a couple of editors, the French inscription that uses "sans doute" would be translated as "probably". This is modern French, where the phrase has acquired that meaning opposite to its literal meaning. To say "without doubt" one says "sans aucun doute". See for example here.

by Evidence Based Medicine

" by evidence-based medicine..." is jargon. If there is evidence, cite it.

The link to the Crataegus article where the citation is done has now been fixed. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 18:34, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

the age of the tree can be verified

It says here it's impossible to verify the age of the tree in France, but this is incorrect. The age of any tree an be verified by core sampling. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.138.90.39 (talk) 06:17, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

Not if it is clonal, or if the core has rotted out. Abductive (reasoning) 03:29, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

Thorn

English is not my mother tongue, so that I write it on the talk page first: In the English literature (especially pre-war and older) I have met the simple name thorn for the common hawthorn a lot of times (more than any other name mentioned in the article). Should I/somebody add it to the list of common names? --Mmh (talk) 18:05, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
