Editorial Recommendation author citation to be checked [resolved]
Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 9 Dec 2004 e-mail from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that the Opuntia engelmannii author citation is given as Salm-Dyck ex Engelm. on TROPICOS (Boston J. Nat. Hist. 6(2): 207-208. 1850.) and as Salm-Dyck on International Plant Names Index (Hortus Dyckensis ou Catalogue des Plantes 1849: 67, 235-236. 1850), so that it needs to be checked.
Correspondence 2 16 Jun 2009 and 14 Dec 2010 e-mails from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates that Opuntia engelmannii was published by Engelmann (Engelm. in Authors of Plant Names) in Boston Journal of Natural History 6(2):207--208 (Jan. 1850), and that Engelmann ascribed the name to "Salm. Mss.", referring to Joseph Franz Maria Anton Hubert Ignatz Salm-Reifferscheid-Dyck (Salm-Dyck in Authors of Plant Names) but provided his own Latin description. [Therefore, author citation corrected to Opuntia engelmannii Salm-Dyck ex Engelm., from Opuntia engelmannii Salm-Dyck previously in this Index, 14 Dec 2010.]
