The confusion of names is to a great extent due to descriptions of 

 species independently made by different botanists. Thus the same species 

 has been described and named by different botanists without knowledge 

 of each others work. The trouble is also due to great variability in the 

 species, which often merge into each other or have striking differences of 

 form.
