6 There appears to be some confusion as to whether N. L. Britton or C. S. Sargent is the author of this 

 combination. Sargent published this name for the first time, in his Silva of North America, II, 7, 1891, 

 but in that connection giving Britton as its author (in Bull. Torr., Bot., CI., 310, 1889). However, Britton 

 (1. c.) did not propose Cliftonia monophylla, but called attention to Sargent's oversight (Garden and Forest, 

 II, 352) in not taking up Ptelea monophylla LaMarck, the oldest name for species. Of course, a very liberal, 

 but an unusual interpretation of Britton's possible intention in this matter, might assign to him a combi- 

 nation he did not formally propose.
