Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 20 Oct 2005 e-mail from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that Scirpus acutus (the basionym for Schoenoplectus acutus) was published by Jacob Bigelow (Bigelow in Authors of Plant Names) in Florula Bostoniensis 15 (1814), wherein he ascribed the name to Muhlenberg (Muhl. in Authors of Plant Names) and provided his own description. [Therefore, author citation expanded to Schoenoplectus acutus (Muhl. ex Bigelow) Á. Löve & D. Löve, from Schoenoplectus acutus (Bigelow) Á. Löve & D. Löve previously in this Index, 20 Oct 2005.]
Correspondence 2 Treatment and author notes submitted for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] by S. Galen Smith see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates that for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Scirpus acutus Muhl. ex Bigelow is to be treated as a synonym of Schoenoplectus acutus (Muhl. ex Bigelow) Á. Löve & D. Löve, and that no other infraspecific taxa are recognized in the sp. in CA.
