Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 1 Dec 2004 e-mail from Misa Ward see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence appended verbatim is pertinent to The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] account: "Many historical occurrences extirpated; need current information on status of occurrences. Intergrades with other sspp.; populations representing true subsp. puberula declining. See Pittonia 1:102 (1887) for original description, and Lloydia 1:87-88 (1938) for revised nomenclature."
Correspondence 2 27 Jul 2007 e-mail from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates: that Horkelia cuneata subsp puberula was published by D.D. Keck in Lloydia 1:87--88 (1938); that Keck attempted to base his combination on Potentilla puberula Greene (Pittonia 1:102. 1887), which was a later homonym of Potentilla puberula Krasan (Oesterreichische Botanische Zeitschrift 17: 304. 1867) and therefore illegitimate; and that Keck also included the synonym Horkelia puberula Rydb. (Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club 25: 55. 1898), with the same type as Potentilla puberula Greene, so that Keck's combination was thus based on Horkelia puberula Rydb. and the correct citation is Horkelia cuneata subsp puberula (Rydb.) D.D. Keck. [Therefore, author citation corrected to Horkelia cuneata Lindl. subsp. puberula (Rydb.) D. D. Keck, from Horkelia cuneata Lindl. subsp. puberula (Greene) D. D. Keck previously in this Index, 16 Aug 2007.]
Correspondence 3 Treatment and author notes submitted for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] by Barbara Ertter see Comment 3
Editorial Comments 3 Correspondence 3 indicates that for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Horkelia cuneata Lindl. subsp. puberula (Rydb.) D. D. Keck is to be treated as a synonym of Horkelia cuneata Lindl. var. puberula (Rydb.) Ertter & Reveal , with no explanation for the evidently trivial change given.
