Nomenclatural Notes

Status: nom. illeg. later homonym non D. Don (1830).

Remarks

Torrey & A.Gray, the publishing authors, ascribed the generic name Oreophila to Nutall and provided a description of their own; they also quoted a description from Nuttall, which is adequate for validation of the generic name; therefore, Nuttall is the author.
