10S6. Chase, Agnes. The Linnaean concept of pearl millet. Amer. Jour. Bot. 8: 41- 

 49. 1921. — Owing to the confusion of names for pearl millet, the author has made a careful 

 analysts of the Linnaean names involved in the problem. To bring order out of this confusion, 

 she recommends rejection of the names Panicum americanum and P. cynosuroides; and sug- 

 gests appropriate restrictions for the names Panicum alopecnroides, P. glaucum, and Holcus 

 spicatus. She believes that pearl millet furnishes a good example of the "Linnaean concept 

 of species," so frequentlj^ urged by botanists who are not systematists. — E. W. Sinnott.
