Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 9 Feb 2009 e-mail from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates: that Rorippa calycina var. columbiae (The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1] synonym) was published by Reed Rollins (Rollins in Authors of Plant Names) in Contributions from the Dudley Herbarium 3(5):176 (1941), based on Nasturtium sinuatum var. columbiae published in Gray, Synoptical Flora of North America 1(1[1]):147 (1895); that S. Watson (= Authors of Plant Names) is indicated as the author of the treatment for Nasturtium, not B. L. Robinson, who was the editor; and that Watson gave the attribution "Suksdorf (as spec.)", suggesting that he was basing the combination on "Nasturtium columbiae Suksd.", except for the fact that Suksdorf had not yet published that name, so that the basionym citation is just S. Watson. [Therefore, author citation of The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1] synonym corrected to Rorippa calycina (Engelm.) Rydb. var. columbiae (S. Watson) Rollins, from Rorippa calycina (Engelm.) Rydb. var. columbiae (B. L. Rob.) Rollins previously in this Index, 19 Feb 2009.]
Correspondence 2 17 Feb 2009 e-mail from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates that Rorippa columbiae was published by Howell in Flora of Northwest America 1:40 (1897), based indirectly on Nasturtium sinuatum var. columbiae published in Gray, Synoptical Flora of North America 1(1[1]):147 (1895), and that S. Watson (= Authors of Plant Names) is indicated as the author of the treatment for Nasturtium, not B.L. Robinson, who was the editor. [Therefore, author citation corrected to Rorippa columbiae (S. Watson) Howell, from Rorippa columbiae (B. L. Rob.) Howell previously in this Index, 19 Feb 2009.]
