## About this plate

Two things worth carrying forward. First, PUERTO RICO'S SPECIALTY CATALOGUE IS AN EDICT: seven programmes, seven articles, all public domain and all citable per claim, a materially better provenance than the agency-webpage counts most US states offer, and worth saying so on the encyclopedia page. Second, THE COUNT IS CONTESTED IN THE MOST INFORMATIVE WAY POSSIBLE: photographs prove programmes the served statute does not create, which means the served scan is either not current or not exhaustive.
