-:The details elude me, but I remember this from a school geography class in '98. There have been many instances when the fossil of a species of a plant or animal have been found on many, and distant, continents. Like, exact same species. Then someone figured out that there used to be one super-continent, [[Pangaea]], which gradually broke up into smaller mega-continents and finally just regular continents. This explains how there is a lot of commonalities between the animals and plants of different continents. So my understanding would be that there was around one (maybe a couple) species of Amaranth a long time ago, and they spread at at the time when there was no impediment of oceans etc. Then the continents broke up and as each evolved to its environment, they changed into a whole lot of slightly different species. Not sure how sound this idea is considering just how ridiculously long ago it was that the continents broke up... I'm hardly an expert.

-If these species are really notable don't they deserve their own pages?  It is irritating that they all redirect you to the [[amaranth]] page.  Just a thought.

-:It's a very bad practice to link to pages which are only, and have only ever been, redirects to the page one is already on. There is a point to having the redirect pages, but there is no point in creating links to them from the page which is the actual destination of those redirects. I'm going to remove all those links and leave it as just text. --[[User:Qirex|Qirex]] 14:06, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
