FNA26 148 Gandhi - 1. Uvularia puberula Michaux.msg Summary by Geoff: We'll never hear from Utech in answer to Kanchi's question, but other sources treat Uvularia caroliniana (J. F. Gmelin) Wilbur as a synonym of Uvularia perfoliata, so different from U. puberula; they also treat U. pudica Fernald as an illegitimate name pertaining to U. perfoliata. I suggest (1) deleting Uvularia pudica as a synonym of U. puberula (reason: not synonym), (2) adding U. caroliniana (J. F. Gmelin) Wilbur as a synonym of U. perfoliata (reason: new synonym), and (3) Adding the sentence "Uvularia pudica Fernald is an illegitate name that pertains here." to the end of the discussion of U. perfoliata (reason: illegitimate name). In all three cases, the source of the change can be listed as World Checklist of Selected Families.
