| Many names have changed in the last few years, especially the names of genera. But often there is not an exact correspondence between an old genus name and a new one, since it can depend on the particular subspecies or variety. The list below shows changes for some of the plants on this website that are found in California; it is not yet complete even for those. It is ordered according to the old names; click on the corresponding new name to get to the appropriate page. |
