Asplenium tutwilerae
- ... that Tutwiler's spleenwort, one of the world's rarest ferns, is named after the prison reformer who discovered its only wild population?
- ALT1:... that Tutwiler's spleenwort was discovered in 1873, but was classified with Scott's spleenwort until 2007?
- ALT2:... that Tutwiler's spleenwort is only known from one population in Hale County, Alabama and can (rarely) reproduce by forming buds at its leaf tips?
- Reviewed: Fort Smith Trolley Museum

- Article length and date ok, all hooks of acceptable length. No problems with close paraphrasing. Original hook can't be used yet, as the article does not explicitly say that Julia Tutwiler was a prison reformer. ALT1 confirmed, but the phrase "classified with" might be confusing; the average reader will probably not know that means "was considered the same species as". ALT2 confirmed. Of these three, I think the original hook is the most interesting. As a perhaps more accessible version of ALT1, how about:
- ALT3: ... that although discovered in 1873, Tutwiler's spleenwort was not considered a distinct species until 2007?
or maybe
- ALT4: ... that, originally discovered in 1873, Tutwiler's spleenwort became one of the world's rarest ferns in 2007?
