Allen]
Correspondence 2 Treatment and author notes submitted for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] by Geraldine A. Allen see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates that for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Erythronium howellii S. Watson is to be treated as a synonym of Erythronium citrinum S. Watson var. citrinum.
