Georef. RemarksPolygon was drawn on Rio Yautepec at town of Yautepec. However, since Yautepec was much smaller at the time of collection (Meek collected in the early twentieth century), Marker was placed close to city center / downtown, much closer to the place where it is likely the collection took place.
