Lippia asperrima Cham. (Herbarium Specimen)
· Collected December 1900, Paraguay

This is a pressed botanical herbarium specimen, not a political cartoon or caricature, and cannot honestly be described as one. The sheet shows dried stems, leaves, and small flower heads of *Lippia asperrima* Cham. (family Verbenaceae), mounted on archival paper with tape strips, a color-calibration chart, a metric scale bar, and two handwritten labels: a determination by M. Clélgua (1999) and a collection note from Dr. E. Hassler's *Plantae Paraguarienses* series, locating the plant in the Cerros de Paraguay. No satirical content, caricature tradition, or printmaking technique is present or applicable here.
