Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 8 Oct 2004 e-mail from Anita Cholewa see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that Sisyrinchium thurowi Coult. & Fisher is to be treated as a synonym of Sisyrinchium minus Engelm. & A. Gray, the latter to be included in treatment for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] [and therefore considered to be naturalized in CA].
Correspondence 2 28 Oct 2007 e-mail from Richard Moe see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 suggests that the epithet presumably should be spelled "thurowii". [In the protologue (Bot. Gaz. 17: 352. 1892), "Thurow" (in italics) is indicated, presumably, as the type specimen (Hockley, Texas), and there evidently is no further mention of this name, so it is not clear which gender is involved. Based on an assumption that "Thurow" is a male (an assumption that might not be valid), spelling of epithet corrected to "thurowii", from "thurowi" previously in this Index, 29 Oct 2007. In the event that it is demonstrated that "Thurow" was female, the correct spelling would be "thurowiae".]
Correspondence 3 30 Oct 2007 e-mail from Richard Moe see Comment 3
Editorial Comments 3 Correspondence 3 indicates that the correct author citation [and Authors of Plant Names abbreviation] is Sisyrinchium thurowii J. M. Coult. & Fisher [for John Merle Coulter, 1851-1928, in Authors of Plant Names]. [Therefore, author citation corrected to Sisyrinchium thurowii J. M. Coult. & Fisher, from Sisyrinchium thurowii Coult. & Fisher previously in this Index, 31 Oct 2007.]
