These are busy times for the botanist who would keep informed in matters Of nomenclature.

In all cases, unless otherwise stated, the preferred name is that in accord with the usages of the Kew herbarium, which means in general the usage of the Gray Manual and the Synoptical Flora of North America.

All such synonymous names are included in the index.
