Hydrocotyle mexicana Cham. & Schltdl.

· Collected 1829–1830, Natural History Museum, London

Hydrocotyle mexicana Cham. & Schltdl.
This is a herbarium specimen sheet, not a cartoon or caricature. It shows pressed and dried plants — likely *Hydrocotyle mexicana* — mounted on archival paper alongside a handwritten label in German script, a printed collector's tag reading "Schiede & Deppe, Mexico, 1829–1830," a barcode label from the Natural History Museum London, a centimeter scale rule, and a color-calibration chart used in digitization photography. No satirical figures, printmaking tradition, or caricature content is present. Providing a comic-art wall label for this botanical specimen would be factually false and cannot be done honestly.
