Good morning Sir It was the information found in FoC page of *Sonchus wightianus* Candolle<http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=242349619>that created confusion to me. According to FoC, " *Sonchus wightianus* has frequently been misidentified with the habitually similar *Sonchus arvensis*, and the later is a hybrid, restricted to Europe & North America ......"
Thank you very much for the ID and confirming one more time.
