Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 16 Nov 2005 e-mail from Jeff Greenhouse see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that Bromus polyanthus was published by Cornelius L. Shear (Shear in Authors of Plant Names) in Bulletin, Division of Agrostology, United States Department of Agriculture 23: 56, f. 34. 1900, wherein Shear ascribed the name but not the description to "Scribn.", referring to F. Lamson-Scribner (Scribn. in Authors of Plant Names). [Therefore, author citation corrected to Bromus polyanthus Scribn. ex Shear, from Bromus polyanthus Scribn. previously in this Index, 16 Nov 2005.]
Correspondence 2 Treatment and author notes submitted for revision of The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates that since The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Bromus polyanthus Scribn. ex Shear, and therefore also Bromus polyanthus Scribn. ex Shear var. polyanthus, is to be treated as Bromus sitchensis Trin. var. polyanthus (Scribn. ex Shear) R.E Brainerd & Otting.
