Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 Treatment and author notes submitted for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] by Michael Nee see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Nicotiana alata Link & Otto is to be treated as a waif in CA, [Therefore, it seems most appropriate at this time to treat this taxon as an historical waif (and therefore not treated in The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2]), in that it has not been observed outside cultivation, even as a waif, since 1960.]
