Hi @Justlettersandnumbers:, in regards to the clarification tag you placed regarding IUCN and Kew, I was obviously relying on the source. I can, however, tell you that IUCN maintains offices around the world (see list) and not just their headquarters in Gland, Switzerland. Currently, their UK office is in Cambridge. I do not know and haven't been able to determine if that is where they always were, but it seems entirely plausible to me, the offices could have been in Kew in the 1980s and 1990s. Let me know if you think the tag is still necessary. Cheers, --SVTCobra 13:28, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
