Nomenclatural Notes
Status: nom. inval. Contrary Art. 41.3 (Melbourne Code, 2012), published without direct or indirect reference.
Remarks
Although this name might be considered to be based on Salix discolor Muhl., Neue Schriften Ges. Naturf. Freunde Berlin 4: 234. 1803, Rafinesque did not refer to Muhlenberg. Thus, the existence of later homonyms, notably S. discolor Schrad. ex Willd., Sp. Pl., ed. 4, 4(2): 695. 1806, precludes treating Rafinesque's action as being an indirect reference to Muhlenberg.
