Correspondence 1 20 May 2003 e-mail from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that, according to Dave Keil (7 May 2003 e-mail to M. Wetherwax), the range given in The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1] for Paeonia californica is to be expanded to include s CCo, and the elevational range expanded downward to be 0-1500 m, as the species grows in the Elfin Forest in Los Osos, at < 10 m elevation; UC964809 (slope above Hwy. 1 between Lucia and Big Sur, Monterey Co.) and UC990528 (Santa Rosa Creek Rd. e of Hwy 1 near Cambria, San Luis Obispo Co.) voucher these changes.

Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates that Paeonia californica was published in Torrey & Gray, Flora of North America 1:41 (1838), wherein Torrey & Gray ascribed the name to "Nutt.! mss." and quoted Nuttall's description.
