Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 Treatment and author notes submitted for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates, in a note under the genus, that in California Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv. is "occ collected but not persisting". [As an active waif, which is what the note suggests, the taxon should have been partially treated (included in key, with description only online); an historical waif (not precisely defined, but generally taken to mean not collected in 50 years or more) would have been dismissed as such in a note.]
