The paper is a reply to Dickinson (see this volume). Criteria of easy recog
nizability and multiclonality for an agamospermous species are shown to be
very dependent on the individual ability of a student and on the particular
case of an apomict. Examples are given of extreme cases of uniclonal and m
ulticlonal agamospermous species in Taraxacum. Use of a section as a catego
ry comparable with a sexual species is discussed; blurred limits of section
s in hybridogenous groups are pointed out. Acceptance of agamospermous spec
ies is advocated as a means how to maximize the information content of the
classification.
