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 that for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Penstemon cinereus Piper is to be treated as an unresolved variant, of Penstemon humilis A. Gray var. humilis, that intergrades fully with Penstemon humilis A. Gray, and for which the matter of taxonomic recognition or not requires further study, and therefore remains unresolved. [If the two taxa intergrade fully, only one taxon is represented, according to usual biological principles.]
