Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 Flora North America treatment by Peter W. Ball (The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Author) & Daniel E. Wujek. see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that the spelling of the epithet used in treatment in Flora North America, co-authored by Peter W. Ball (The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Author), is "crinigerum". [Since Eriophorum is treated as neuter, the correct spelling of the epithet when used in this genus is "crinigerum" according to Stearn, p. 93 (when used in Scirpus, which is treated as masculine, the correct spelling is "criniger", also according to Stearn, p. 93). Therefore, spelling of epithet corrected to "crinigerum", from "criniger" previously in this Index, 17 Jan 2006.]
Correspondence 2 25 Jan 2013 e-mail from Bruce Baldwin, including forward e-mail from Julian Starr, one of three authors of the new California genus Calliscirpus see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 includes citation of a paper [Gilmour, C. N., Starr, J. R., Naczi, R. F. C. 2013.

Starr, & Naczi, treated as Eriophorum crinigerum (A. Gray) Beetle in The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1] as well as The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2], and Calliscirpus brachythrix C.N. Gilmour, J.R. Starr, & Naczi, new to science.
