- Through an unquestionable error Piper no. 58 was referred to P. pedunculata Mill. in the 
Torrey Bulletin.a The latter species is not known west of the Rocky Mountains. 
The type locality as above given is very likely the result of an error. This species is at 
present known from east of the Cascade Mountains at but a single station—near Troy, 
Idaho.
