I think the problem is that the name Senecio scaposus was published twice and is associated with two different botanists: Senecio scaposus DC (de Candolle) and Senecio scaposus A. Nelson. Senecio scaposus DC is the basionym of Caputia scaposa (DC) and therefore shouldn't be termed "ambiguous" by the CoL. Nelson's Senecio scaposus is the synonym of Packera werneriifolia.

If you agree that this was a case of confusion. I will edit the two entries, removing the name as a synonym from the Packera entry and adding it as a synonym to the Caputia entry. I can then move all of the photos but growitall's and the blue chalksticks to the Caputia scaposa entry, but you'll have to tell me which one is the blue chalksticks.

While I was typing, Baja identified the photos to be moved, so I'll do that now.
