Transcription Notes:
Vernon's e's can look like i's and his c's look like e's. I tend to google the species names to double check that what I've transcribed is what he's written. He does make spelling mistakes though! -@siobhanleachman @noundandverber: Poccetes -- a guess. can't find plant genus resembling or matching this. Also can't find crifinis (guess) anywhere
