An even more interesting scenario. Sandra Anagnostakis does id on chestnut species and thinks this is something special, maybe, even a new species. Stayed tuned, I guess.

Sandra Anagnostakis WOW!!!! I don't know what this tree is, but it isn't a C. ozarkensis! I am really interested in what it might be. Have you looked at the Arkansas USDA chestnut cards on my web page to see if anything was sent to that area?

Lucas Machias Really? Seems like OCF should know as they are aware of it. Maybe ask them. Too bad, if it is not. Why do you say not so?

Sandra Anagnostakis It is much more important than just another Ozark chinquapin! Might be like one of Hill Craddock's "not dentata" trees. Who are OCF? The chinquapin foundation?

Sandra Anagnostakis Lucas Machias it reminds me of some of Hill's trees that don't fit anything! There are more chestnut species under heaven than we have imagined in our wildest dreams.

Wow, quite a statement! What does it mean? Are you saying there are unknown native species?

Lucas Machias Sandra Anagnostakis BTW the guy in Idaho says he is sending samples from the 100 ft suspected dentata. Also, have Canadians sent samples to you ok?

Sandra Anagnostakis Lucas Machias Yes, I think there are more native U.S. species, and who knows what is still in western China!
