Alberto, your comment on "Tristagma peregrinans is a Ravenna's species that
we could not find so far. He does not recognize Ipheion as a genus simply
because if all were Tristagmas the botanical names should bear his name
attached. If this is botanical science.!! " makes me chuckle. It is amazing what a mess he has made down there!

A botanist could spend his entire career cleaning up after him! Have you
ever been to Herbarium Ravennae, his personal holdings of his many "Type"
specimens?

Tchau,
