Natural selection seems to have overshot the mark just a little bit, but, as I predicted, last summer I began to see a few green dandelions in my lawn.

*Taraxacum officinale viride* – green dandelion. The visitor is a longhorn beetle, *Crossidius* sp., according to Eric Eaton, author, *Kaufman Field Guide to Insects of North America*.
