Nomenclatural Notes
Status: nom. illeg. nom. superfl. Payson (1927) published C. jamesii as a new name for Myosotis suffruticosa Torr. 1827 (non C. suffruticosa Piper 1919). Under his C. jamesii, Payson treated 5 varieties, e.g., C. jamesii var. cinerea (Greene) Payson (based on Oreocarya cinerea Greene 1896), Payson could have made the new combination C. cinerea. Thus, C. jamesii was superfluous when published.
